Godanxee’wat: Stone Ribs was created by Haida artist, Gwaai Edenshaw, this eight foot pole, originally carved in Yellow-cedar, is an edition of seven bronze totem poles. Edenshaw combines his understanding of Haida culture, Haida oral history and sculpture to interpret Stone Ribs, a celebrated supernatural being and ancestor to the Haida people. Gwaai Edenshaw was fortunate to have Bill Reid as his first mentor.
