Passamaquoddy Birchbark David Moses Bridges is an award-winning artist, who has received national attention for his work, which ranges from full-size birchbark canoes to traditional containers. The footage shows him in his workshop making containers and showing how the raw materials are prepared, stitched together and etched. A later film shot focuses on harvesting spruce root, which is used to sew the bark.
