Supernatural Eye Sculpture
Robert Davidson RCA
Price upon requestEpoxy Powder-Coated Aluminum, Granite base
2007
Limited edition of 5
Davidson’s inspiration in creating this contemporary sculpture was the many supernatural beings that dwell on the Haida Gwaii Islands.
First, Davidson worked from drawings and then manipulated cut-out cards subtly before moving to prototyping the piece in different materials, sizes, and colours. Made from aluminum cut by a water-jet process, this sculpture’s thick curved planar form evokes the cut-outs used in making appliquéd blankets. Its sculptural design is innovative in its reliance on form and line and its use of negative space to create the image of the eye.
The second edition of Supernatural Eye is currently in the collection of the National Gallery in Ottawa.

Looking at Asymmetry
Robert Davidson RCA
CA$3,000.00Serigraph, Edition of 111
2001
Unframed
(For inquiries on custom framing, please contact the gallery)
“I feel that art can have premonitions about the future. The first design was created long before the events of 9/11 and the resulting US war in Afghanistan. Between the action and reaction, I thought about the title that I had given this print and the idea that no retaliation would be unsymmetrical and the decision to declare war was symmetrical or a predictable outcome. No retaliation would be a sign that we were reaching maturity.” – Robert Davidson RCA

Tide Walker [Framed]
Ben Davidson
Price upon requestSerigraph, Edition 46 of 77
2017
Framed
Ben Davidson’s Tide Walker is a remarkably expressive serigraph by one of the Northwest Coast’s foremost artists. The blend of traditional and contemporary formlines, as well as the use of rich and saturated colour, joins to create an aesthetic that is distinctly a Ben Davidson work.
Below are the artist’s own words regarding this piece:
“Tide Walker exists in the space between the land and the ocean. From afar, he appears as a dorsal fin, so we imagine his body beneath the waves. We are so desperate to be the first to see the killer whale that we allow our minds to complete his story before we have time to determine the truth. We are so swiftly lured into believing the surface story that we rarely take time to consider what lies beneath.” (Davidson, 2017).
Ben Davidson is an internationally-renowned contemporary First Nations artist. He is the son of Robert Davidson, also of international fame. Ben stays true to his Haida ancestry, while always pushing the boundaries of traditional artwork.

Occupied [Framed]
Robert Davidson RCA
Price upon requestSerigraph, Edition 12 of 88
2007
Framed
“Occupied was first a doodle for a thank-you card. I also couldn’t pronounce the plural ‘octopi.’ When you look at the map of Haida Gwaii there are red parts to indicate reserve land that we can occupy and it adds up to less than 0.1 percent. We have been corralled onto this tiny piece of land. There was a time when we needed to sign in and sign out to leave the reserve. And we had no rights to natural resources. When it was all taken away from us, 90 percent of the population died and the survivors’ children were kidnapped and taken to residential schools. Then we became wards of the state and we were labelled as lazy. We look at the photographs – fortunately they photographed all the villages before all this devastation – and they are lined with many totem poles. The totem poles were not created by lazy people.” – Robert Davidson

Fisherman’s Delight
Robert Davidson RCA
CA$1,800.00Serigraph, Edition of 81
2022
Unframed
(For inquiries on Custom Framing, please contact the gallery)
“I went fishing with Reg and his friend Tom Wylie last summer. I was really taken because they were charged with excitement. They kept handing me a rod but I was just happy to watch because they were really interesting… When we went to the river to fish we were excited to know that we had replenished the food supply. Reg has constantly replenished the halibut and salmon supply for freezers in the village because he feels the need and so few people own boats.
The focus point in this piece of art is a Spring Salmon depicted with the face of Humanity. Traditionally, the native societies were established around fishing, hunting, and gathering. The most valuable resource was salmon. For thousands of years, salmon was the primary food source for the people on the Canadian Northwest Coast. As a result of overfishing came a time of scarcity. Salmon perished and humanity depended heavily on its return. Salmon is a powerful symbol of regeneration, prosperity, and renewal for the Haida people.
⠀
In the bottom right corner of this painting, Kuugan Jaad (also known as Mouse Woman) comes into sight. She is a character in many Haida legends. Mouse Woman is a supernatural being. She is the mother of Raven according to the mythology. She often appears in stories as a helper or advisor to those who are on a journey or to those who have crossed (or are about to cross) to another dimension (Spirit World or the unknown). She is highly respected as she offers great wisdom to restore order and balance. According to mythology, Mouse Woman can change shapes. She can be a big eyed mouse and change into a tiny human grandmother. However, in art, her appearance is mostly abstract.
⠀
When I’m creating a design, sometimes subconsciously Kuugan Jaad just appears in the art piece. Her form arises automatically during the creative process. It is striking because she is known to lend a helping hand to story characters in our legends.“ ~ Robert Davidson -

Sk’ug sdang (Two Dog Salmon)
Robert Davidson RCA
CA$1,500.00Serigraph, Edition of 97
2021
Unframed
(For inquiries on Custom Framing, please contact the gallery)
“[This serigraph] is about the hope that we can change direction from global annihilation to a more balanced way of life. These two-dog salmon symbolize the last stage of their life as they swim upstream to lay their eggs ensuring another generation of dog salmon to be born. It has become more and more present-day civilization’s responsibility to ensure they will return again and again for future generations.” – Robert Davidson, 2021

Llgaay Gwii Sdiihlda (Restore Balance)
Ben Davidson
Price upon requestSerigraph, Edition of 81
2020
Unframed
(For inquiries on custom framing, please contact the gallery)
“Llgaay Gwii Sdiihlda means to restore balance. According to my father-in-law, it applies when we are about to fall, but we manage to catch ourselves before we fall. I chose to name the print Llgaay Gwii Sdiihlda because I believe that even when we are in a state of uncertainty, we still have the ability to regain our balance.
The print features an image of Sea Bear. Though there is not much information about him, I think of him as a protector of the ocean, which is symbolized by the blue. In Sea Bear’s mind, we can see the importance of finding balance in our lives. Sea Bear’s companion, Sea Ghost, can also be seen faintly in the waves in the background of this print. Sea Ghost represents our connections to our parents and our ancestors. In order to continue our journey forward, we must listen for the echoes of our ancestors who will help us restore balance in our lives.” – Ben Davidson, 2020
