Saltwater Hank

Historically speaking, many have come and gone before us without broad notice, despite having made significant impacts during their lives.

Born in Prince Rupert, BC and a member of the Gitga’at community, Tsimshian folk artist Saltwater Hank resurrects stories of the land, loss and absurd circumstance and shines them through a sepia lens, witnessing ageless characters with hearts and lives on the line.
