These scenes of resource gathering and processing were initiated in order to fill some of the gaps left by earlier anthropologist and cultural observers among the Gitxsan. The objective was to create colour images of traditional practices that were partially captured in earlier black and white photographs and in early texts such as those written by Marius Barbeau and William Beynon.
