To Catch a Fish presents over sixty works of craft and art that are either used in fishing or that illuminate the relationship between people and fish. Utilitarian fishing objects include hand-crafted basketry fish traps, scrapers, weights, and nets. Works with spiritual significance and symbolism include amulets, robes, images of saints, and even kites. This exhibition includes the stunning work of contemporary artist Marianne Nicolson, addressing the impact of commercial fisheries on indigenous communities in British Columbia.
