About Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas

Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas is an award-winning visual contemporary artist, author, and creative spark plug. His visual practice encompasses a variety of different art forms, including large-scale public art projects, mixed media sculptures, painting, ink drawings, ceramics, and illustrated publications. Exploring themes of cultural identity, ecology, and the barriers and openings in the human condition, he uses art and speaking opportunities to communicate a world view that while particular to Haida Gwaii – his ancestral North Pacific archipelago – is also relevant to a contemporary and internationally-engaged audience. Influenced by both the tradition of Haida iconography and contemporary Asian visual culture, Yahgulanaas has created a practice that is celebrated for its vitality, relevancy, and originality.

Yahgulanaas’ work is held in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York), the Humboldt Forum (Berlin), British Museum (London), Seattle Art Museum, Denver Art Museum, and the Vancouver Art Gallery among several others.
