- Healing through Native Creativity: Artist Conversation with Peter Boome
- Description
- Peter Boome (Upper Skagit) Mixed Media Coast Salish artist Peter Boome is an enrolled member of the Upper Skagit Tribe of Washington State. Boom’s work as an artist is informed by his Coast Salish heritage. Working in a range of media, including painting and carving, it is his hand-pulled serigraphs and two-dimensional designs that are among his best-known works. Boome has worked with both new and established Indigenous artists from around the country and as far away as New Zealand and Australia. With degrees from Northwest Indian College and Evergreen State College, he also received his JD from the University of Washington School of Law. In addition to his artistic pursuits, Boome is a practicing attorney, mediator, and college professor. His award-winning art is collected around the world and can be found in the permanent collections of prestigious institutions. For more information about Boome and his art, visit his website at www.araquin.com or find him on social media. December 4–6, 2020, the museum was pleased to present selected artists from past Native Art Markets to share stories about their art and latest creations. Through the beauty and solemnity of their creative pieces, these artists encourage us all to look forward to a future of good health and social justice.
