Description

These two works, The Black Hawk (left) and The Red Eagle (right) by celebrated Gitxsan First Nations artist and master carver Ya'Ya Heit were commissioned by Osgoode Hall. They hang in Gowlings Hall.

The enormous cedar wood carvings represent the connection between Osgoode, its physical location on First Nations land and the power of reconciliation and healing.
