GO WEST, YOUNG MAN! The @FestivalPageant’s depiction of American sculptor Leo Friedlander’s memorial to the Lewis and Clark expedition of 1804 featured the key WOMAN in that story: Sacajawea, the only female among a group of 33 explorers. She guided them through thousands of miles, across uncharted U.S. wilderness territory. Today, the Shoshone woman is a symbol of U.S. culture, pride and female strength. Matthew’s portrait of the volunteer actor who portrayed this heroic American attempts to capture the strength and dignity of not only Sacajawea, but just as importantly, the human inside the costume!
