- + About the Artist
- Jim Charlie is a Squamish artist from North Vancouver who grew up learning the histories and traditions of the Coast Salish peoples from his grandfather, accomplished carver Dominic Charlie.
A carver himself since adolescence, Charlie brings a sculptural sense of form to his designs - bold, dimensional shapes that make the figures immediately recognizable while retaining the structure of Northwest Coast design.
His work draws on the legends and stories of his Nation, continuing a family tradition he was taught was meant to be shared.
- + Behind the Artwork
- Salmon has sustained Coast Salish communities for generations and holds a central place in the life, stories, and traditions of the Pacific Northwest.
More than a food source, salmon is treated with deep respect and appears throughout Coast Salish art and oral traditions as part of the relationship between people, water, land, and the returning cycles of life.
