Northwest Coast Masks
The dynamic imagery of the Northwest Coast People, expressed in a style as rhythmic and flowing as it so complex, has created one of the world's most remarkable art traditions. It is an art with vitality and profound meaning for those of its culture.
In the past, the social and spiritual order of the Northwest Coast People was visually confidential through their art. It was seen in totem poles and house posts which bore the crests of their owners; in elaborate masks and intricately carved goat horn spoons; in tobacco mortars wrought from stone, in magnificent ermine-trimmed headdresses, and spindle whorls enriched with symbolic carving on both sides. Excelling in three-dimensional sculpture, many NWC artists often depict images steeped in the traditions that reflect their family's heritage.
