I made this piece to commemorate my first trip to Alaska.
While there I was injured crossing a river on a fishing trip.
My left foot was crushed between the rocks so that the skin was
broken on the bottom. It was quite painful, so I just waded barefoot
out in the cold water, to keep it clean, and keep the swelling
down. I caught a big female salmon, which I smoked and ate. I
think you can see all of that represented here.
