Mountain Memories

“The wolf and caribou populations in the Selkirk Mountains are a big topic lately. There’s controversy around culling wolves in an attempt to stabilize the cariboo population (even though human activity is what creates pathways for wolves to get into the subalpine in the winter). I use silhouettes of wildflowers and some invasive species in the mural as well. All of these species live here in these mountains. The mountains are part of them. We place all our ideas on them; things to be saved, things to be killed, things to be controlled when really they just need to be able to exist in their home here.”
