Hubert Francis; music, Michel GrenierDescription:A documentary about Passamaquoddy basket-weaving artist Jeremy Frey. The Passamaquoddy people have had a rich history and presence in the north eastern part of New England and Atlantic Canada for many centuries, and this history includes a tradition of basket-making. Jeremy, a talented artist from a long line of basket-makers, specializes in fancy basket-making. His intricate pieces are highly sought by collectors. The documentary also looks at the challenging task of finding and preparing the right type of ash to use for weaving, and the shift from utilitarian to more aesthetic baskets prompted by trade with Europeans and later Americans and Canadians. <22mn>Language:EnglishOriginal number:122307Notes:Detailed holdings information: -
