This piece comes from Ron, of the Netherlands.This piece is based on the art of the "Haida native Americans”.
The Haida are very spiritual people and originally lived on the North-West islands of America, today know as Queen Charlotte Island (Canada).
Most of the images they use for their art, totems and decoration of all kinds of attributes like tools and furniture, are based on animals.
In their culture they don't believe in just one god like most religions in the world, but in many different ones and....... that animals protect them and the world.
The humans, animals, oceans, lakes, rivers, mountains, land and even the skies know their own protector
