"FOOD IS POISONING US"
Title: FOOD IS POISONING US
Medium: Acrylic and spray paint on canvas
Price: $10,000
About:
I was approached by the City of Vancouver to do a commissioned mural for the 150 Canada celebration. This canvas was first painted as a mural that was 30 feet tall on a wall in Vancouver, with the concept of East meets West. It took 20 days to paint and featured characters from Kwakwa̱ka̱ʼwakw, Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh, and Cree Anishinabe.
This canvas you see before you is a piece of the larger whole. It represents the harmful food and other cravings in our Western culture that tempt and take hold of the youth, but only lead to suffering and isolation.
The bright spirit guide emerges to help our youth come out of the many addictions we face and the trauma inflicted by Canada’s past that we now must overcome through honesty and reconciliation.
The red in the spirit guide indicates all the injuries and traumatic experiences my spirit has faced living in the real world.
