Inquire

“House of 8 Arms honors the deep connection between land and sea. The artwork on this cedar bentwood box draws inspiration from the hidden world beneath our coastal northwest waters, what one might glimpse when peering into the den of an octopus. A creature of intelligence, adaptability, and mystery, the octopus embodies transformation and resilience. Painted by hand, this piece serves as both vessel and story, reflecting the rhythmic movement of the tides and the harmony between strength and softness that defines life along the coast."

BIRTHPLACE:
Cape Mudge Village (We Wai Kai), Quadra Island, BC

Growing up in Cape Mudge, directly across from the Nuyumbalees Cultural Centre (formally the Kwagiulth Museum), Adam has been enamoured with his culture’s art for as long as he remembers. Although exposed to Indigenous art, Adam’s creativity initially led him to street art. Adam spent over 25 years creating murals with aerosol paint, developing his freehand skills, colour combinations and composition. In 2021, Adam shifted his artistic focus towards learning his traditional art forms. Adam is mainly self-taught and continues to learn and refine his practice every day.
