    About the Artist: 

    Corrine Hunt was born in 1959 in Alert Bay, British Columbia.  She is a member of the Raven Gwa'waina clan from Ts'akis.  Her Grandmother is A’neesla’ga, a Tlingit noblewoman from Alaska.  She also has descendants of Kwakwaka'wakw heritage.

    Norman Brotchie introduced her to Kwakwaka'wakw art. Since the mid-80s she has specialized in Kwakwaka'wakw art, especially jewelry creation.

    Her work is prized by collectors worldwide and she has over 2,000 creations. In 2006 she created the logo for the World Peace Forum. She worked with Omer Arbel to create the designs on the Olympic medals for the 2010 winter Olympics. Her work also includes installation at the Hilton Hotel Whistler, medal design for the North American Outgames, and was awarded the National Aboriginal Achievement Award.

    She designs jewelry, clothing, sculptures, and other art and functional artwork items. We feature her work with beautiful bags.

The Salish Sea is the network of waterways of the Cascadia region of British Columbia and a northwest portion of the state of Washington, close to where our store operates. The area is a home for many Native American tribes with numerous cultures and languages.
