Gordon Dick
Gordon Dick is a career artist and carver based out of Tseshaht traditional lands in Port Alberni, British Columbia. He creates artwork in the west coast style of the Nuu-chah-nulth and is a wood carver, jewelry maker, designer, and creator of large scale sculptures and architectural pieces.
Gordon has been a career artist since 1995 and learned traditional teachings about his culture from his grandparents Alan and Agnes Dick. He gained knowledge about the material of wood and wood grain from his grandfather and his uncle Wayne Dick. In 2005 Gordon apprenticed under Master Carver and Hesquiaht Artist Tim Paul, who continues to be a major influence in his practice. In 2008 Gordon opened Ahtsik Gallery in Tseshaht cultural territory (Port Alberni) where he showcases his art and the work of other west coast artists. “Ahtsik” means “creating to the best of your ability,” which is a guiding philosophy of his art. His personal approach to the traditional art form of his ancestors includes a strong sense of flow and harmony, a high standard of craftsmanship, and artistic and technical experimentation. The content of his art supports themes of nature found in cultural teachings.
Gordon’s art is in private collections and public spaces in Canada, the United States, Italy, and Germany.
