"I was invited to participate in the 1989 mask exhibition at the Inuit Gallery and had the large 'Salmon Mask', which I had decided to retain for the feast Every Year the Salmon Come Back and for the permanent regalia of the Rainbow Creek Dancers. The gallery agreed to include the mask in the catalogue and in the exhibition for display only. I was designing a print and I decided it would be a print with a mask title, and pretended that it was a mask."
"I always think that we gain a little more knowledge of ourselves over time and we are always in a state of transformation. Sometimes the process is fast and sometimes it is slow."
