Gaming News Wednesday, April 3, 2019 4 Bringing Art to Indian Country EC Art Services is known for bringing the best art to casinos and new builds in Indian country. When gaming on reservations first started, tribes wanted to conform and look and feel like Las Vegas. Today, tribes are interested in bringing forth their culture through art and design. A Native American owned and woman operated company, Founder Ruth-Ann Thorn is an active and respect- ed member of the Rincon Band of Luiseño Indians. She has worked as a fine art consultant for two decades assist- ing Native American tribes curate art for projects in Indian Country. "As a Native American, I feel it is very important to bring forth the cultural history within tribal properties. Our culture is what speaks to who we are as a people. There is no better way to show culture than through art. This is why I have devoted my life to empowering tribes to have a voice through unique art that has been created for tribal properties." Every tribe has its own story. Thorn leads a process of "discovery" to help determine what important aspects are to be used visually while keeping continuity within an interior design plan. Her knowledge and expertise have greatly assisted in what can be a daunting task of choosing the best art to meet the desired needs of the tribe. ECAS is the art source for commer- cial spaces, hotel rooms, lobbies, meeting rooms, trib- al hall, health centers and more, working directly with tribes, owner representa- tives, developers, project managers and designers to create custom work for new projects and remodels in Indian Country.
