The Whaling People of the West Coast of Vancouver Island and Cape Flattery
Eugene Arima and Alan Hoover
CA$19.95The Whaling People live along the west coast of Vancouver Island and Cape Flattery in Washington. They comprise more than 20 First Nations, including the Nuu-chah-nulth (formerly called Nootka), Ditidaht, Pacheedaht and Makah. These socially related peoples enjoyed a highly organized, tradition-based culture for centuries before Europeans arrived. As whaling societies, they had a unique relationship with the sea.
This book celebrates the still-thriving cultures of the Whaling People, who survived the devastating effects of colonial power and influences. It features 12 narratives collected from First Nations elders, each illustrated with original drawings by the celebrated Hesquiaht artist, Tim Paul. The book also includes a history of treaty making in BC, leading up to the recently ratified Maa-nulth Treaty signed by five First Nations of the Whaling People.

‘D’ Spirit Pin/Pendant
Lyle Wilson
CA$600.00Sterling silver, Textured, Engraved
2013
“This group of pendants, brooches and earrings were inspired by an earlier painting of mine entitled ABC’s: Reconstituted, 2011. The subject matter is the English alphabet rendered in the Pacific Northwest Coast (PNC) formline style. It is my recognition that educational ideals are steadily becoming incorporated into the fabric of PNC people’s lives. That’s a good thing, and these jewelry pieces are my little way of recognizing the importance of continuing modern educational ideals.”

Gax̄ & New Moon Pendant
Lyle Wilson
CA$1,700.001976 Montreal Olympiad $5 Dollar Silver Coin, Deeply Sculpted, Engraved, Textured
2014
“This pendant was inspired by two slightly separated events. While at the beach during a late afternoon, I watched a raven hopping around and hunting for something to eat on the beach. Shortly afterwards, as daylight faded rapidly to dusk, a new crescent moon became visible. It was beautiful and reminded me of Raven’s role in releasing the Ball of Light.
The silver coin is thicker than standard silver stock, so it allows me to carve extra deep to give a sculptural look to the pendant. The pendant’s back is left as is to show its beginnings as a coin.”
-Lyle Wilson, 2016
