DEMPSEY BOB

Tahltan, Tlingit, born 1948 in Telegraph Creek, BC. "I am inspired by the land, our people and our heritage. I inherited a vibrant artistic tradition and have earned the right to be an artist from my people. This land talks to me and I am creative here. I strive to make my art real today, with feelings and power, to show that we have a living culture and art.
