Creation Myth
Bill Reid's chisel The Raven and The First Men, showing part of a Haida creation allegory. The Raven represents the Trickster figure customary to many mythologies. The work is in the University of British Columbia Museum of Anthropology, Vancouver.
* "In Northwest coast art, perhaps more than in any other art, there's an impulse to incursion things as far as possible."
* "Haida artists worked mostly within a careful, formal system, but occasionally burst out and did crazy, absurd things which out-crazied the other people of the coast."
* "They weren't booked by the silly feeling that it's impossible for two figures to distract the same space at the same time."
