Item Overview

Description

NORTHWEST COAST First Nations 22" Glass Eagle Panel by Terry Starr, Tsimshian 22" diameter, sandblast carved glass featuring Terry Starr (Tsimshian) imagery over painted steel base. This design features an Eagle and the outer circle depicts the shell. Terry Starr was born in Port Simpson, British Columbia in 1951. He is from the Gispax Laats tribe, Eagle clan of the Tsimshian nation. His mother is from Kitsumkalum, British Columbia and his father is from Lax Kwalaams (Port Simpson). Terry began carving at an early age and was influenced by the wealth of art and cultural traditions still active in Port Simpson. Terry chose to study Business Administration and enrolled at Camosun College in Victoria, British Columbia. While in college, he met Art Thompson, Tim Paul and Richard Hunt who held the position of First Carver for the Royal British Columbia Museum. Terry began to carve with the artists of the Royal British Columbia Museum Carving Shed, which served as an education centre for the museum, as well as training young artists and oversaw many international commissions directed through the museum. Terry assisted on the growing number of commissions, many of which were for both Expo ‘86 in Vancouver and various sites around the city in preparation for the worlds fair. Terry chose to concentrate on carving full time and began an investigation into his own Tsimshian style. At the same time he continued to assist with commissioned works given to other artists. He moved to Vancouver to receive greater exposure for his work and was immediately offered the commission to paint the housefront design for the Tsimshian longhouse at the Canadian Museum of Civilization in Hull, Quebec. He continues to carve and paint full-time and is a also a respected printmaker.
