I am sharing a personal mythology of Pacific salmon to honor these creatures as symbols of our local landscape, and as a timeless source of nourishment to many of the people and animals in our local geography. I have constructed tributes to three of the local species of Pacific salmon—Chinook, Sockeye, and Coho—using materials I gathered from the riverbanks of the Columbia, as well as water from the river, that are frozen together into ice sculptures. In sharing this mythology, my goal is to elucidate my audience to the key role salmon play in sustaining our local ecosystems, and to warn of the perils that the fish faces should we choose to ignore its declining numbers.
