ARTIST STATEMENT
Kwè
My name is Andrea Hunter. I a Mi’kmaq Artist from Natoaganeg First Nation (Eel Ground). I currently reside in Connecticut with my family amongst our Algonquin sister tribes. As an artist I create hand painted cedar art using traditional and modern day designs in my work. As well as inlay style work into cedar art as well using materials such as crushed wampum shell and crushed stones. Using our people’s designs and bringing them to life using one of our four sacred medicines allows me to pass on traditions to our people and share my art for generations to come. Wela’lin
