Todd DeVries G̱íihlgiigaa is a Haida Cedar Bark weaver based in Vancouver, BC focused on the practical use of his creations and the community-building potential of this fine craft. Todd first started weaving with Western Red Cedar Bark in 2001 following a mysterious vision he had of the Old Woman of the Forest. Primarily self-taught, his weaving style has still been impacted by some important teachers.  Since then, he has been sharing his skills, and teaching other weavers how to master materials of their own choosing as well as cedar bark, through demonstrations, workshops, weaving circles and informal mentorships.
