  • The Killer Whale Symbol in Indigenous Art

    Both revered and feared, the Killer Whale has a long history of being the hunter of the sea. The traits and characteristics of the Killer Whale are strength, dignity as well as prosperity and longevity. They are known to follow a matriarchal society, so we honour the mother Killer Whale for its resilience in nature.
