Comment
Since time immemorial, First Nations peoples have understood artistic activity as much more than simply the expression of an individual's creativity. Indeed, art has always been a way for them to preserve history and tradition, and to pay tribute to the kingdom of nature, which provides for their needs. First Nations peoples have always been keenly aware of their environment. From time immemorial, they have carefully observed the cycles of nature unfolding around them, learning from what they see, and passing on these lessons through art.Continuing the tradition of his ancestors, Richard Hunt has created a magnificent scene depicting a family of eagles whose parents care for, cherish and watch their young grow. Behind this evocation of nature lies a call to all parents to cherish their children, like the eagle parents who work tirelessly to feed their young, for it is in youth that the future of the world lies. The scene is also a reminder of nature's abundance, its bounty that should never be taken for granted or abused, like the eagle that takes only what it needs to feed its family.
The marriage of native art and modern technology gives life to a unique piece.
