Much of Carr's work is influenced by the Canadian west coast and the tribal comunities there."Defiantly individual, international in her training yet firmly rooted to the visual and spiritual power of a primitive art and a rich landscape, single-minded in her search for identification with the primal energies of the universe, Emily Carr holds a special place in Canadian art.. This book reflects more than a decade of meticulous research, and excerpts from Carr's own prolific writings have been skillfully woven into the narrative, combining with exquisite reproductions of over 200 paintings, charcoals and drawings, two thirds of them in colour, almost all of them specially photographed for this book." - from dust jacket.
