Notes: 

Brian Fox Wagoosh was born in 1956 on Manitoulin Island.  Growing up as a child on Wikwemikong Reserve he was surrounded by a culture rich in ancestral history.  The Native medicine his mother practiced and the many ritual-spiritual traditions impressed him.  The local high school at West Bay introduced him to an alternative form of artistic expression that has allowed him to explore the spiritual world of his people in visual abstraction.  Brian continued his education in Sault Ste Marie where he attended Algoma University while working with the Algoma Steel Corporation.  As an artist he remains deeply committed to his aesthetic vision.

Item is currently on display in East Wing of Algoma University.
