In these dramatic sculptures, Connie Sterritt (Nuu-chah-nulth/Gitksan) applies modern technology to traditional Northwest Coast shapes to produce a contemporary look at formlines and design. For Sterritt, the life-size Bear, Raven and Wolf sculptures represent “a longhouse, in a time when man and animal were of equal status, and ‘home’ was as beautiful as its surroundings.”
