Salmon Drum3113/5

Painted drum made of stiffened skin stretched over a round frame of wooden slats, attached together with adhesive. Skin wraps around frame edges to the back, where thin strips of sinew are attached through holes to draw the material tight. These are lashed together with leather thongs at centre, making a handle. The face of the drum is painted red and black, with four salmon heads emerging from the sides, surrounding a series of concentric cirlces at mid-point with interspersed crescents and traingles .
