Ep. 13: Aganaq Kostenborder on weaving with Willow, reconsidering weaving with culturally sensitive plants, getting to know plants over time

This episode of the Ground Shots Podcast features a conversation with Aganaq Kostenborder, a mixed indigenous weaver, craftsperson, seamstress, and artist currently living in Oregon. We talk about her relationship to Willow, rethinking weaving with culturally sensitive plants, watching plants and learning from them all throughout the year, how baskets can hold moments in time and place, how baskets can gravitate towards the people they are meant for. Aganaq and I have been friends for years, and met up this summer and recorded this conversation August 2018 in the back of my camper on the land she lived on at the time.   Links:   Aganaq on instagram: @aganaq buy a basket from her or send her money via Paypal so she can continue to do her work.   ************************** Support the podcast on Patreon Help us get to 100 patrons!
