RESIDENT ARTIST
Silver Moon Gallery - Where Art Meets Precision Printing
Born and raised on Haida Gwaii, Tahltan artist Levi (Mala’) Purjue is inspired by the pristine beauty of the B.C Northwest Coast and the vast ocean that seems to preserve it from the rest of the world. Currently he resides on the Sunshine Coast of B.C which has its own beautiful characteristics and natural unique landscapes. Music is a fundamental part of his inspiration and as a musician, creates an Avenue of creative expression through his artwork. Being a contemporary artist with traditional elements, Naturalism is his style as he strives to evoke the feeling of motion in his artwork.
Levi is also a wood Carver, using mainly red and yellow cedar to create expressions of indigenous culture. “Carving from a natural and living material such as wood, feels so completely grounding.” Levi says, “It’s like walking barefoot on the beach, it just grounds your body’s energy.”
