This piece comes from an exploration into totems that started four years ago during a summer spent in the solitude of the British Colombian wilderness. In the same way the native totems of BC express family lineage, these totems symbolize new ideas, solutions, and dreams. They hold new ways of thinking, new ways of seeing; hope.
