  • Arctic Indigenous Fashion

    Open Access•Elisa Palomino•ARTICLE•Museum International•2026

    Arctic Indigenous communities have long adapted to extreme environments through women's expertise in crafting garments from fish skin (salmon and Arctic char), birdskin (seabirds: eiders, loons and puffins), gutskin (sea mammal and bear gut) and woven seashore grass (cottongrass and rye grass). Colonial-era collecting removed many of these belongings to distant museums, severing cultural ties. This study explores collaborative provenance research…

  • AI-Enhanced Colour Reconstruction of Native Nanai Fish Skin Garments

    Open Access•Elisa Palomino, Ana Cordoba Crespo et al.•ARTICLE•Digital Applications in…•2026

    Fish skin garments made by Native communities of the Lower Amur River in eastern Siberia were created by processing salmonid and carp species into wearable materials.

  • Alutiiq Fish Skin Traditions

    Open Access•Elisa Palomino, June Pardue•ARTICLE•Heritage•2021

    The Alutiiq, Indigenous inhabitants of the coastal regions of Southwest Alaska, created garments made from fish skins, especially salmon, expertly sewn by women from Kodiak Island. Traditionally, Alutiiq education focused on acquiring survival skills: how to navigate the seas in all weathers, hunting, fishing and tanning animal skins. Today, many Alutiiq people continue to provide for their families through subsistence fishing, honouring the ocea…
