About Artist:
Joe Mandur’s talents blossomed after the rebirth of the North Coast Native art. His Haida name is 7iidgyaa Kauyss which means ˜Our Precious One’. Experienced with the mediums of stone, wood, metal and paper, Joe was surrounded by fine native carving at an early age. He continues to explore the carved form in both traditional and non-traditional media, always showing a deep respect for traditional elements of Haida design. Art gives voice to the conformist and non-conformist in his personality; his intelligence and wit shine through in his pieces.
