” mean for a piece of art, that’s also a piece of history? Excellent — the rope framing the outside edge has shrunk and there is a small gap between ends. Note bottom edge in photographs.

From a personal correspondence: "Between 2005 and 2007, I took a weekend course on designing with Robert Davidson. You can see that it is reflected on this particular piece.”
From dailyhive.com:
West Coast artist Klatle-Bhi is creating some of the world’s most unique pieces. Canada is home to some of the most talented artists in the world, and one of them is based in Vancouver. Artist Klatle-Bhi was born to the people of the Squamish Nation on March 21, 1966. His ancestral name means “head killer whale of a pod of killer whales” and was given to him by his grandmother, Emily Baker.
Growing up on Vancouver’s North Shore, Klatle-Bhi learned aboriginal carving techniques from his grandmother. And from 1990 onwards, he pursued his passion which allowed him to create a spiritual connection between his artworks, culture, and the earth. Much of his career was self-taught before he went on to learn from his uncle at his workshop.
Today, Klatle-Bhi has over 25 years of experience with his own style of carving that’s unique and distinctive. You’ll find many of the skilled artist’s works around the world and he works with clients to create one-of-a-kind pieces. The difference between his work and the work of others is that he focuses on each individual client and their own personal connection to art.
Creating a legacy
A master sculptor and artist, throughout his career Klatle-Bhi has created totem poles, masks, talking sticks, carved pendants, canoes, prints, paintings. and clothing.
And in 2010, he was commissioned to carve a 22-foot totem pole to commemorate Petro-Canada’s sponsorship of the 2010 Winter Olympics, the piece was called the 2010 Legacy Pole.
MOON MASK
Moons are a very popular character that Klatle-Bhi has created many times over.
“The moon has so many different meanings and significance in my culture. And is so instrumental in its connection to the earth and all its animals, and water. Moon solstice is the most powerful time and often many ceremonies are timed for moon solstice. I believe in cultures around the world, the moon plays many significant roles and is the one character that all races of people can connect with in their daily lives,” Klatle-Bhi told Daily Hive.
