The marvel of a basket is in its transformation, its journey
from wholeness as a living plant to fragmented strands
and back to wholeness again as a basket. A basket knows
the dual powers of destruction and reaction that shape the
world. Strands once separated are woven into a new whole.
The journey of a basket is also a journey of a people.
