dc.descriptionSquare-based tall basket woven out of film and decorated with loops of opaque red film (one row near the rim and seven consecutive from the bottom up)
dc.descriptionGail Tremblay weaves baskets with film outtakes from student projects at Evergreen State College, where she teaches art. As she has written, she enjoys the idea of "gaining control over a medium that had historically been used by both Hollywood and documentary filmmakers to stereotype American Indians." In its use of traditional Iroquois fancy stitch basket patterns, Gail's basketry is intentionally ironic.
