Ben Houstie Silkscreen Print – ‘River Otter’ (355/380)

Ben Houstie is a Canadian artist of Heiltsuk heritage, born in 1960 in Bella Bella, British Columbia. Known for his work in both traditional and contemporary Indigenous art forms, Houstie has developed a distinct style that incorporates the visual traditions of the Northwest Coast. His artworks often feature elements like animals and natural motifs, which are presented with the bold and precise lines characteristic of the region’s art.

The River Otter silkscreen print, numbered 355/380, reflects Houstie’s respect for his cultural heritage, featuring the otter—a key figure in Indigenous symbolism—rendered in the artist’s signature style. This signed print from 1991 offers a striking glimpse into Houstie’s commitment to preserving and reinterpreting Indigenous art for contemporary audiences, making it a meaningful addition to any collection of Canadian Indigenous art.
