SHAPESHIFTER ALUMINUM PANEL

Ed Archie NoiseCat’s work is visually powerful as it recounts the ancient North American myths, posing fundamental questions and illustrating the primal conflicts of culture and mankind.

NoiseCat grew up in Canim Lake Band in Northern BC. He draws inspiration from his mother’s Shuswap Nation, and from his father’s people, the Lil’wat Nation. Trained as a master printmaker at the Emily Carr College of Art & Design, NoiseCat’s vision was then distilled by experience as a fine art lithographer in New York and Boston before beginning his exploration as a contemporary artist of monumental sculpture, working in mixed multimedia including works in glass, wood, steel, bronze, silver, and gold.

Variations in surface texture such as solder marks, shading, scratches, and various other inconsistencies are the character and the natural beauty of these raw metal silhouettes and are not considered flaws or defects.
