Rande Cook born 1977. His cultural heritage includes N'amgis, Ma'amtagila and Mamalilikala tribes. His grandparents Gus and Florence Matilpi raised him with strong cultural views and ties to this rich heritage. His grandfather taught him the essential elements of Kwakwaka'wakw design and impressed upon him how the art can connect him to his culture. In addition to learning and experiencing art in a traditional way, Rande complements his work by exploring new media such as metals and mastadon ivory. Early mentors developed his appreciation for Westcoast art and its many variations of style and expression. Since moving to Victoria in 1996 he has been influenced by the works of Don Yeomans and John Livingston. Rande was also fortunate to spend time with Bruce Alfred from whom he learned to bend traditional boxes. Since January 2002, he has been apprenticing under John Livingston. This opportunity has allowed him to explore wood carving, mask making, box making and numerous other forms of Northwest Coast Art. Rande is confident he will be able to move forward to challenge his art and to experiment with new techniques as well as to continue his lifelong growth as an artist.
