 lessLIE ( Coast Salish )  - Salmon and Water [print]

Artist Statement: Salmon and Water


The vitality of wood and water
for Coast Salish cultures

the wooden origins
of the print paper
the water inside
the printing ink

the concentric circles
of rippling water
the concentric circles
and crescent forms
found in wood gRAINs

small salmon seeing insects
falling into water
seeing water ripples
swimming to the top
of the water
to eat the insects

creating water ripples

human eyes seeing
water ripples
through the concentric circles
of human eyes

a rippling vision
of perpetuation
