About the Original Sculpture
The Transformers indicate the movement and flow of Sḵwx̱wú7mesh ceremony and reciprocally represent the natural current of swirling air on this territory within the northern hemisphere. The original massive cedar carvings monumentalize the capacity for shapeshifting between worlds. Each grain of wood expands multiple layers of meaning which memorialize the powers of ancestors past. These moments of transformation mark change whereby land bears witness to movements between sea and sky—the journey between ocean, rivers, ravine creeks, and fluctuating bodies of water. Sna7m Sea represents water as giver of life and Sna7m Sky, holder of all things, bringing connection to the spirit world. The Transformers are a profound visual story of the land. They hold a spiritual essence of resilience, harmony and the interconnectedness of life.
