Welcome to the Street Prophets Coffee Hour cleverly hidden at the intersection of religion and politics. This is an open thread where we can share our thoughts and comments about the day. A special exhibit at the Museum of Glass (MOG) in Tacoma, Washington, entitled Transitions: An Exploration of Glass by Northwest Native Carvers and Weavers featured the works of several American Indian artists.
According to the Museum display:
“Ancestors of the Salish Sea region continue to inspire and inform the next generations of artistic leaders and culture bearers. Translations represents a dialogue between familial generations, and continuing conversations about the evolution of indigenous art.”
In 2015, Native artists were invited to explore glass in a residency at MOG with expert glassblowers Dan and Raya Friday.
