Technique: Hollow Building means each piece starts with flat metal sheet, and is engraved, hammered shaped and soldered. Jewelry is hollow inside making it much lighter with crisp line. 

Who We Are

The Tsm'syen people are makers of traditional cultural artwork for thousands of years.
With a rich history of story and performance the art form was hugely intertwined with the feast system. Spanning a large territory in northern BC the Tsm'syen continue to live as an oceangoing people harvesting seafood and wild meat for sustenance. 
Artworks were created to be visual law;  depicting migrations, marriages, war and land ownership.
​Our Art form must continue to be used to memorialize and honor both people and stories.
