Hlk’Yak’II: To Start a Fire

 This ambitious group exhibition, catalogue and ongoing public program were created in partnership with the Swiilawiid Sustainability Society, as a means of envisioning “energy independence and human resilience in the face of climate change.” The hope-filled art on display ranges from Benedicte Hansen’s painting of kelp waving in ocean currents to Laurel Terlesky’s interactive drawings and sculptures inspired by houseplants to SGang Gwaay Dolly Garza’s woven dance apron symbolizing Raven’s gifts to humankind.
