Born in 1994, Adonis David is a Nuu-chah-nulth artist from the Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation in Tofino, British Columbia. Coming from a rich lineage of artists, his creative roots are deeply tied to family and tradition. He is the son of renowned carver Doug David and grandson of master artist Joe David, growing up surrounded by the practices, stories, and visual language of his ancestors.
