This year, Coast Salish artist Charlene Johnny and Fjällräven have come together to create a one-of-a-kind Kånken that explores and expresses Charlene’s ancestral artwork. “Kånken means to carry. We carry teachings, we carry knowledge, we carry language. I think it is important for indigenous people to carry forward what our ancestors have gifted us. All of my inspiration for Coast Salish art comes from our ancestors and the gifts they have given us.”
