Eagle Opens Up

An eagle depicted mid flight in the traditional style from Paul Windsor, a Haisla-Heltsuk muralist, on a wall in Main Alley for the 2017 Vancouver Mural Festival. Artist statement: “The content’s positive/impactful in a way it isn’t direct. Art is healing through form/flow/colour/aesthetic all subjective to the artist. Im going to leave perspective on current multi-generational reality that impact communities and people worldwide. It’s bright side as strong as I can express it through my style and spirit: through the art of our culture. Homes, (healthy functioning homes) are safe, sober, clean, strong and productive…loyal, nurturing and unified, (like this design.) A lot of people lost that from their lives. The house design-split-eagle-box represents everything negative and positive, balancing negative/positive spaces and opening up with the guidance of eagle reveals the movement of spirit bringing healing and nourishment to soul.”
