S'abadeb-Seattle Art Museum This unusual shaped basketry hat was a commission by the Burke Museum, which asked Karen Skyki Reed to replicate an ancient hat unearthed at Wapato Creek in 1976. Reed's grandmother had lived at Wapato Creek in Tacoma, Washington, which was an ancestral home of the Puyallup Tribe. A gifted basket maker and apprentice of Gerald Bruce Subiyay Miller, Reed noted that the old hat was so well preserved that she could puzzle out how the inner hat was made and attached to the outer twined hat. Contemporary artists revel in the opportunity to re-create older artifacts to determine how they were made and how their forms evolved over time. Purchased with funds donated by Lawrence Christian.
