Summary

Description
English: Sketch inspired by two richly decorated Kwakwaka'wakw cedar paddles (trying to show Amerindian culture enhances beauty even in customary tools) : a small river paddle (with upstream working salmons, eyes and scales made of inlaid abalone mother of pearl) - and a big sea paddle, with a shrieking Thunderbird head .
Français : Schéma inspiré par deux pagaies de cèdre crées par des artistes Kwakwaka'wkaw ( dans la culture Amérindienne, même les objets usuels doivent refléter la beauté) : une petite pagaie de rivière (décorée de saumons remontant, yeux et écailles de nacre d'ormeau incrustée) - et une grande pagaie de mer, décorée d'une tête d'"Oiseau Tonnerre" hurlant.
