PROVENANCE
Acquired directly from the Artist
By descent to the present Private Collection, Ontario
In 1924, Emily Carr, to supplement her income, produced crafts such as hooked rugs and pottery. For the pottery, she used clay that she dug herself from locations such as Dallas Road in Victoria. In a homemade kiln in her back yard, she fired her hand-built clay objects, which included candlesticks, totems, bowls, pots and lamps. These single-fired objects were then painted with a variety of Indigenous motifs, such as the thunderbird motif that dominates this bowl. She signed her clay objects Klee Wyck, a name given to her by the Nuu-chah-nulth people of western Vancouver Island, which meant “Laughing One.”
