Very good painting, The dream catcher is used to catch bad dreams, the meaning behind this seems to presume that the buffalo is somehow bad, which is a contradiction in native thought, as the buffalo is the source of all that is good. A dream catcher, of which iʻve made many, works by only letting the smaller better dreams through while attracting the bad dreams to areas where they will be get trapped, i love the skill and ability of this painting but its meaning has been lost to me.
Carol Cavalaris replied:
Thank you for your comment and for your thoughts on the meaning of dream catchers. This dream catcher is based on Native American tradition of having a symbolic web over a sleeping person to protect them from bad dreams. Nightmares are caught within the web. And the good dreams, which are floating in the air, are also caught and become part of the web. The dream catcher traps the nightmares until they perish with the new light of day, and the good dreams flow down the dangling feathers to the sleeper below. The buffalo, as you said, is very positive, and is like a good dream, held within the dream catcher and all the healing power of this strong spirit animal also flows down to the person below.
