Balanced Forms: Xwalacktun, James Harry, and Austin Harry
–
This exhibition features Coast Salish artists Xwalacktun and his sons, James and Austin Harry. In addition to his projects as a commissioned artist, Xwalacktun has worked as a cultural instructor in many school districts throughout the Lower Mainland, creating carvings with students which are displayed at the schools. The artist sees this work as a learning opportunity that supports his efforts at reconciliation. A selection of these projects will be featured together in the exhibition, alongside preparatory material that demonstrates the design process. Among Xwalacktun’s many students are his two sons, James and Austin Harry. ..more
