Daalkaatlii Diaries in Paris, France
The Musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac has purchased nine works in the Daalkaatlii Diaries series for their permanent collection. These have been put on display on the main floor of the museum. The series was inspired by the historical narrative of a significant flood event in a tidal slough and expansive tidal grass flats. This area is known as Daalkaatlii, named after the magnificent sandhill crane (Antigone canadensis).
A Brush with Yahgulanaas: Exhibit in Seattle
In January 2026, Stonington Gallery will host a solo exhibition of Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas. The works in this exhibition span watercolor and ink drawings and paintings from across Yahgulanaas’ career. Early projects such as A Tale of Two Shamans (c. 1999) explore Haida cosmology through scenes of transformation and consequence, while later works, including Packing Old Bill’s Pole (2015), reflect on artistic legacy and the tension between art and ethnicity.
