  • Trevor Hunt is a prominent Indigenous artist, born in 1975, and a member of the Kwakwaka'wakw (Kwaguilth) Nation from Fort Rupert on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. He is part of the esteemed Hunt Family, a long line of hereditary carvers and artists who have been instrumental in the survival of the Kwakwaka'wakw art form on the Northwest Coast.

    Artistic Heritage and Career

    • Family Legacy: Trevor's artistic lineage includes his father, Stan Hunt, his grandfather, Henry Hunt, and his great-grandfather, Mungo Martin.

    • Early Start: He began painting original graphic interpretations of Kwaguilth myths and stories when he was just 10 years old and started carving in wood in 1997.

    • Teachers: He learned traditional form line design and carving techniques from his father, Stan Hunt, as well as his brother Jason Hunt and cousins Tim Alfred and David Knox.

    • Style: Trevor works primarily in carved and painted cedar wood, mixing a contemporary sense of motion and flow with his traditional training.

    • Works and Contributions: His works include releasing limited edition prints and T-shirt lines, designing logos for Vancouver Island businesses, and carving over twenty-five poles, including a massive 52-foot totem pole that travelled to Buenos Aires, Argentina. His Kwakiutl name, "T'łalis," translates to "a pod of killer whales swimming toward a village."

    Trevor currently lives in Fort Rupert and is dedicated to passing on his knowledge, taking time to teach children at local schools.
