Journey of Hope – Blue

Also available in Red
Joe Wilson has created this limited-edition print series illustrating the traditional Coast Salish whorl in which both the male and female Killerwhale are represented in balance and harmony with one another.
The ‘Journey of Hope’ was designed specifically for the survivors of the tsunami in Japan in 2011 to pay tribute to their survival instincts as well as their future hopes and dreams.
The Killerwhale is an important crest symbol, associated with power, strength, dignity and communication.
The Killerwhale is thought to be the reincarnation of great chiefs so they are the majestic protectors of mankind. Many believed that those lost at sea were carried away by the Orca to their villages deep within the ocean and they would be guided to a new life and a new beginning.
Killerwhale Clans live in Killerwhale Villages deep within the ocean; when at home they remove their skins and live as large humans. Mating once for life and thought to be the reincarnation of great chiefs, these majestic animals are the protectors of mankind. While known to capsize canoes and carry the inhabitants to their Killerwhale Village, they are also reputed to act as guides to humans caught within storms.

“When I decided to carve a Moon mask, I wanted it to depict something beyond Haida legend. Traditionally, Raven is represented with the Sun and Moon because of his role in placing these heavenly elements into our sky. With my mask, the female Moon is surrounded by two Ravens – a male and female. They represent myself and my wife Trace, as we are both from the Haida Raven clan. Looking at the stars and moon on clear nights just happens to be one of our favourite things to do.” – Don Yeomans

“I have always loved patterns in design. The goal in this series was to represent a pod of whales in a very traditional colour & design. The biggest challenge for me in this was the absolute [tedium] I experienced having to carve the same design three times.” – Don Yeomans
