Local Salish-Halkomelem artist, author and Sculptor, David Seven Deers is recognized internationally for his fine art, indigenous sculptural works; these works are featured in permanent private and public collections around the world. David’s most recent masterpiece, “Shining Raven Woman” is a tribute to “Ikasha” … a kneeling Salish woman symbolizing the spirit of unity and Indigenous Reconciliation. The stone figure was been meticulously sculpted and polished out of a one tonne piece of 4.6-billion-year-old Canadian Labradorite using traditional, painstaking, non-mechanical carving methods over 19 months of work.
David Seven Deers has officially received the go-ahead from the City of Grand Forks, and the land is ready to break ground for his Ikasha Project. Upon completion of this Ancient Salish Stone Person, David wishes to home Ikasha at the confluence of Grand Forks' two rivers, facing east to the rising sun. His vision is to contribute the sculpture as a cultural legacy to our community, Canada, and the world in perpetuity. Shining Raven Woman carries an intrinsic message of respect for First Nations and all non-native peoples, honoring ancient ancestors, recognizing Indigenous culture, and embracing the unity reflected in the meeting of the two rivers' waters.
