11" x 14" limited edition numbered digital print, hand embellished by the artist.

This artwork is called "Fish Woman”. This artwork was created to honour salmon, and how it has nourished coastal communities for many years. When Bear thought of this idea, he wanted it to be an elder holding a basket of fish. Elders are very honoured in Indigenous communities and carry teachings and traditions. We really wanted to emphasize how important fish is to his people with the phrase “Fish is Life”.

Bada Jean is a Nêhiyaw (Cree), Dene and Welsh visual artist from Treaty 6 and 7 territory. Her roots come from Ahtahkakoop Cree Nation and Tsuut'ina Nation. She grew up in Alberta and Saskatchewan, and now lives and works on Sumas and Matsqui First Nation Territory. (Chilliwack, BC).  Bada Jean is a painter working with acrylic, spray paint and traditional materials, as well as a digital illustrator. She hopes to share her culture with art, by using traditional imagery and language within her works in her own style. She uses her art as documentation as she reconnects and comes back to her culture. As she learns her language, she uses Cree syllabics and language within her work as an act of reconcillation. She hopes to inspire others to come back to their culture for it is not lost, and hopes other Indigenous people across the world reconnect, because it has always been with us.
