In this special episode of the Whistler Podcast, we hand the mic over to Jeremy West, a member of the Squamish Nation, for an insightful conversation with Master Carver Xwalacktun (Rick Harry) and Apprentice Brandon Hall, both from the Squamish Nation.
They discuss their incredible work on a housepost commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Squamish Nation's amalgamation, their journeys in carving, and the reclamation of Indigenous arts and culture. Tune in to hear about the power of mentorship, community, and the deep connection between art and heritage.
