Collection of Lyle Wilson artifact and photo donations. Includes a folder containing documents pertaining to donated items. Also includes a book "The Haisla People" with infomation about the Haisla and families and clans, and another book "Paint."
Lyle was born into the Beaver Clan but was adopted into his father's Eagle Clan in a move to bolster the group's diminishing numbers. The event had an immense impact on Lyle's life and inspired much of his art. In 2012, Lyle created a solo exhibition Paint, a life-long exploration of Haisla art, language and culture. Lyle's primary artistic influence was his uncle, Sammy Robinson. Lyle would watch the older man and copy him, whittling his own pieces. But it wasn't until Lyle attended the University of British Columbia (UBC) that he contemplated art as a potential profession. He initially focused on art education but found the studio more alluring. Eventually, Lyle left UBC to study printmaking at the Emily Carr College of Art and Design, where he developed a personal style in graphics and three-dimensional wood and jewelry compositions. Lyle was an artist in residence at the UBC Museum of Anthropology (MOA). His pieces are shown at institutions in Canada and Japan.
