The Smithers Art Gallery is featuring two indigenous artists through the month of September.
The first is Arlene Ness from Gitxsan with the show “Carving the Cosmos: Gitxsan Stories in Form and Flow.”
“This exhibition highlights a beautiful sculptural panel with a carved moose bone inlay and a female figure amongst the cosmos,” said Gallery Manager Jenna Savage.
Her other work features Gitxsan form line designs including a wood panel print.
Sharing the space is Tlinkit artist Blake Lepine from Whitehorse, Yukon with “The Lines Unfold the Light.”
“It depicts a blend of both traditional Tlinkit art and modern contemporary work,” said Savage.
Tonight, (Friday) the gallery is hosting an opening reception from 7:00 to 9:00 with both artists in attendance.
The show runs until October 10th.
