Design:
The reverse design by Canadian artist Andy Everson presents the theme of "Land." Its central motif is a beaver, stylized in the tradition ofEverson's K'ómoks and Kwakwaka'wakw ancestors. This image is framed by six maple leaves which, individually, represent autumn. Together, the six leaves form a winter snowflake. The negative spaces between the leaves are the raindropsof spring. Rays emanating from this central image represent the sunshine of summer.
The Interconnections series celebrates the relationship between Canada's three natural realms: land, sky, and sea. This first release, dedicated to "Land," adopts a beaver as its central motif while ingeniously incorporating Canada's four seasons. This central motif is framed within a wreath of six maple leaves. The iconic importance of the maple leaf to Canada is well known, but this image also points specifically to the season of autumn, when maple leaves are at their most colourful. Arranged in a six-point pattern, the leaves also become a winter snowflake. Nestled between the leaves are six stylized raindrops, celebrating spring. Finally, rays of sunlight emanate from the image,symbolizing summer. Like the seasons themselves, each element of the design blends into the next. The design's hologram treatment augments this sense of connection and transition.
A nod to Canada's pragmatic, hard-working people, the beaver is one of Canada's oldest symbols as well as a key figure in First Nations mythologies. Canada's exploration and settlement by Europeans was also deeply influenced by this unique animal, who drew theearliest fur traders to Canada's eastern shores.
It is highly fitting that an artist representative of the traditional guardians of Vancouver Island's eastern "Land of Plenty" would design a series celebrating the connection between land, sea, air, and the people whose lives overlap within this environment. Andy (Na̱gedzi) Everson is a member of British Columbia's K'ómoks First Nation. Through dance, drumming, and art, Everson honours the traditions of his K'ómoks and Kwakwaka'wakw ancestors. He has travelled internationally as a ceremonial dancer, sharing First Nations traditions. It was through ceremonial dance that Everson began his first serious forays into art, designing pieces for potlatches. Today, he is known for his bold, eye-catching, and thought-provoking designs that often meld traditional motifs with references from popular culture.
