Native Arts 360 Exhibit: Thriving 2023

Join us for the Native Arts 360 exhibit "Thriving" in collaboration with COf& in celebration of Indigenous Peoples' Day in the lead up to Native American Heritage month through the month of October 2023 opening Friday, October 6 at noon. 

Lummi and Nooksack artist Jason LaClair, Savannah LeCornu ( Tsimshian, Haida, Nez Perce) and Kaa Shayee (Tlingit) will share their bold designs in vibrant palettes - with highly disciplined Coast Salish and form line design incorporated into their epic stylized visions.

Two of Whatcom county's extraordinarily talented artists sold their art for this Labor Day market at Fringe Brewing. On a laid back end of summer warm day Jason LaClair of Lummi and Kaa Shayee, a Tlingit artist local to the area, boldly displayed their phenomenal Coast Salish and line form design through jewelry, prints and stickers. The two artists had recently wrapped up their 160' "Indigiversal" mural at Waypoint Park in Bellingham, WA, positively moving beyond some of the controversy due to how the artists were treated by the Paper Whale organizers of the event.

On a smokey weekend at Waypoint Park in Bellingham, WA, Indigeversal Collective installed a massive 160 foot mural at the entrance of the park. On August 18-20, a team of extremely talented artists from Coast Salish to Cherokee origins spent 3 days painting in the Coast Salish and form line design styles associated with Pacific Northwest tribal nations.

I attempt to place the creatures back in their environment by capturing the fluid nature of molten glass and transferring it into the perceived weightlessness of a swimming creature. I always strive to imbue the work with a hint of life.”
