Haida Ovoid by Tamara Rain Bell reflects the bold formline design traditions of Haida art through a contemporary pair of designer earrings. As a member of the Raven Clan, Tamara draws on cultural symbolism and identity while creating works that are both wearable and deeply meaningful.
Rather than signing her work with her name, Tamara uses her status number — a deliberate statement highlighting the ongoing dehumanising systems imposed on Indigenous peoples by the American and Canadian governments. The work stands as both adornment and quiet resistance.
