To travel anywhere and to any cache, sharing with everyone the beauty of Haida art.
The Haidi are the indigenous nation of the Pacific Northwest Coast of North America and I am a big fan of their art. Haidi art can be seen seen every day throughout Canada in museums, airports, government buildings and until recently graced the back of the Canadian $20 bill.
The Raven is the trickster and creator in the traditional creation stories of the Haida. He took the sun, and created the moon and the stars from it, thus creating night and day. He created the lakes and rivers as well as populated the earth with tall trees creating forests. Afterward he gave animals to fill the forests he had created. He gave the primitive humans freedom as well as the gift of fire before disappearing and taking with him the spirit world away from the humans.
Raven is travelling with his Gray whale friend who is also a resident of the Canadian west coast.
