For my aesthetic representation I have chosen a dream catcher that I had the privilege of making with an Elder. This was made in my grade 9 Indigenous studies class when I first had the opportunity to learn about the Indigenous history. I got to learn about the importance of dream catchers in the Indigenous culture and how they described the night air being filled with good or bad dreams. The dream catcher was a way for the bad dreams and spirits to be caught and protect the children at night. The different strings on the dream catcher is a way to describe the different journeys the creator will take you in life. The bead in the middle is a way to represent to circle of life and where all your journeys begin from. The different strings are also described as the web where the bad dreams and sprits are caught up until the sun rises and then those sprits or bad dreams are destroyed. The feathers represent ladders that send good dreams usually to the children sleeping.
