Under a full moon, an orca leaps through icy waters beneath a sky of stars. Yet within its body lives another world - a jungle of trees and sunset light, a secret pond where life breathes and renews.
For the Haida and Tlingit peoples of the North Pacific, orcas are kin - intelligent, social, and deserving of the same respect we grant ourselves.
This painting honours that vision: the ocean holding the forest, the whale carrying the world’s breath within. May we, too, learn to see the life of our planet as one shared body.
