Cedar Harvesting with Brenda Crabtree, Emily Carr University of Art + Design

Brenda Crabtree is the Aboriginal Program Manager at Emily Carr University of Art + Design in Vancouver. She is a member of the Spuzzum Band and has both Nlaka’pamux and Sto:lo ancestry. Her art practice includes cedar and spruce root basketry, drum making, moose hair tufting and beadwork. Her work is continually shifting between traditional and contemporary representation and re- interpretation. She creates objects using traditional materials and techniques...and often incorporates politically motivated text to combat historical amnesia.
