From Atlas Obscura.

Step into the world of Jeremy Frey, a distinguished master of Wabanaki Basketry and a proud guardian of his Passamaquoddy heritage in the captivating state of Maine. With a lineage that traces back seven generations and beyond, he continues a timeless tradition deeply rooted in the local landscape.

We take an intimate glimpse into Jeremy’s creative process, as he transforms ash wood harvested from the nearby forests into stunning works of art. From the intricacies of his designs to the finesse of his weaving, each basket is a testament to his resilience and commitment to preserving this traditional art form.
