Inspiration Behind Bird in the Air: Davidson has spoken about being intrigued by how this design captured the essence of flight and spirit, the idea of a bird unbound, floating with purpose and poise. The eagle’s sharp eyesight is a metaphor for clarity of purpose and sound decision-making. Davidson’s work often celebrates these traits, a “lofty ideal,” connecting us to something greater.
Artwork by Haida Artist Robert Davidson: For more than fifty years now, Robert Davidson has worked as an artist and has produced an internationally acclaimed body of work. Davidson’s passion to revive and perpetuate a variety of forms of Haida cultural expression, including song, dance and ceremony, has fuelled his remarkable output throughout the years. He has been responsible among other things for carving and raising the first totem pole in his hometown of Massett in nearly 90 years when he was just 22 years old. His inspiration was to give his elders a chance to celebrate culture in a way they had not been able to in their lifetimes.
