"I believe that art must always be progressing and evolving. Although I do a form of traditional Indigenous art, I try to take the solid foundation that was given to me by my ancestors and push it in new directions. The New Territory set is a visual expression of remaining grounded in tradition yet always pushing the boundaries and exploring New Territories. The prints depict the animals in a traditional circle spindle whorl form and although the majority of the animals bodies remain inside the spindle whorl the noses of the animals are breaking through the edge of the circle to explore new territory. This represents the always evolving nature of art."

Dylan Thomas is a Coast Salish artist from the Lyackson First Nation. His family is culturally and artistically active, and he was exposed to art and artistic processes at a very young age. Several years ago, Dylan worked with late Coast Salish carver Delmar Johnnie to learn engraving techniques, and he has apprenticed under Kwakwaka'wakw artist Rande Cook. Dylan learned wood carving, painting, and jewellery carving from Rande, and Rande has also been a major help to Dylan when considering design and form. Dylan cites Art Thompson, Susan Point, and Robert Davidson as his main sources of inspiration.
