Description of Work:
The piece that harmonizes the salmon theme, a contemporary colour blended aluminum Fish Trap. Fish silhouettes are pierced out from the one-inch aluminum and gently rounded so as not to leave any sharp edges. The negative fish silhouettes make a positive design element ... roots, from the great western red cedar.

Artist Statement:
Salish Markers and Medallion Inlay.

Markers like these traditionally identified places and boundaries; these two basalt Salish Markers represent the journeys that salmon must make in order to continue the cycle of life and maintain their survival.
