Art Sterritt, who also goes by the name Myanxa, trained as a carver and printmaker at 'Ksan, a historical village, museum, and art school that opened in 1970 near the former nineteenth-century village of Gitanmaax. Art attended 'Ksan from 1970 to 1972, and learned carving, as well as jewellery engraving, from established Gitxsan artists Walter Harris and Earl Muldoe. Art resides in Prince Rupert, BC, and is still active as a maker of ceremonial headdresses and totem poles for the Gitxsan and Wet'suwet'en peoples. (Lattimer Gallery website)
