January 23, 2014: Superheroes Get a Native American Makeover

Native American Superman Artist Jeffrey Veregge, who is also a member of the Port Gamble S'Klallam Tribe (located just outside of Seattle), has created a series of Superhero poster images inspired by traditional Coast Salish art. Coast Salish is an art form unique to the Pacific Northwest, known for depicting the earth, sky, and its animals in distinctive, swooshing silhouettes.

"I want people get a chance to relate to an art form that has been used primarily to tell the tales of my people and heritage," said Veregge. "I want to give other people an opportunity to see Native art tell the stories that many of us have grown up with, stories that transcend any single culture and can be embraced by all as their own."
