God is it amazing the Culture captivity, an astonishing work. Very beautiful Southeast creations.

I don’t agree with him saying our culture and stories are baggage. You cannot do native art without those. That’s the entire purpose behind our art form. We had no written language. Art told stories. The carvers I’ve met all said rich non natives LOVE it when you can explain the story and meaning behind the piece they’re buying.

Wise words: "If you're a drowning man hanging onto a life raft and you see an island, you have two choices; the longer you hang onto that raft, the less strength you have to get to the island." Great video, thanks.
