Artist: Hank Bull
Artwork Title: Landmarks
Medium: Archival pigment print on metallic paper
Dimensions: 13×16” Print
Year Created: 2025
Edition: Open
Artist Statement:
The work shows various landmarks from Coast Salish territories—mountain peaks, the Two Sisters, a pine tree in Lighthouse Park, a large rock in Sechelt Inlet, covered in lichen.
Lichen can be found just about anywhere, from deserts to mountain tops. Neither plant nor animal, it is a symbiosis of fungus and algae. The word symbiosis was invented to describe this mutual support. But symbiosis can also mean collaboration in general. For example, the Two Sisters commemorate the peace between the Haida and the Squamish Nations.
The earth is a living network of relations inextricably linked together.
Maquette for a stained-glass window design at the King Edward Transit Station.
“Landmarks" is a commission of the City of Vancouver Public Art Program.
