Milky Way Starry Night 2017 --- Margaret Nazon, Gwich’in
For over a decade, Nazon has created celestial beadwork designs that blend traditional beading techniques with her fascination with images from the Hubble space telescope. The abstract nature of the celestial photographs allows the artist to be more interpretive. With a mixture of representational and stylized aesthetics, she can incorporate different materials such as caribou bone and willow seeds, that have location-specific significance.
