image is a photograph featuring the eleven plywood and cedar panels that make up Haida / Nisga'a artist Luke Parnell's "A Brief History Of Northwest Coast Design". The panels are decorated with traditional formline artwork. The four panels to the left progressively grow darker, obscuring the artwork. The three in the middle have been washed with a thick white acrylic paint, further obstructing the art. The four to the right have clear artwork on top of wood that fades from white to natural as it progresses from left to right.

i'll be honest, it's been a weird month in an already weird year;
i've gotten lots of comments on my 2021 art of raven as a two-spirit interpretation, here; i've continued to reflect on it as new people keep talking to me about it. i've esp thought about it in relation to how important transformation is as a concept in tsimshian culture and oral history.
