INDIGEVERSAL COLLECTIVE

Bellingham is honored to be a permanent home for two Indigeversal Collective Murals, created at Noisy Waters by artists representing seven tribes across North America. 

 

“This art honors our ancestors,” says Savannah LeCornu, who designed and painted one of the seven symbols within the mural.

 

In both murals, each of the artists designed symbols in the visual language of their ancestors, all of which were tied together by Indigeversal Collective founder, Kaplan Bunce.  The 2023 Collective was the first time painting a mural for over half of these artists. In 2024, these artists returned, becoming mentors for a fresh group of emerging muralists.

“Host to many artists from all over Turtle Island indigenous and non-indigenous, Noisy Waters Mural Fest brought the community together in good hearts, minds, and spirits. It provided a place to connect and to learn from one another, leaving a lasting imprint on Bellingham.” - Free Borsey
