1954

Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas was born in Prince Rupert, British Columbia in 1954 and grew up alongside Delkatla, near the fishing village of Masset on Haida Gwaii, off the north coast of British Columbia.

He is a descendant of the influential Haida artists, Isabella Edenshaw and Charles Edenshaw.

As a child, Yahgulanaas was an avid comic book reader and cartoonist.

A prolific young artist, he soon covered the walls and ceilings of his bedroom with drawings.

At age 22, he began to direct his artistic endeavors outward, to effect change in the community and in relation to broader movements of environmental activism.

1978

In 1978, Yahgulanaas began an apprenticeship with renowned Haida artist Robert Davidson.

Yahgulanaas credits Davidson, as well as Haida master carver James Hart, in providing him with formal training in the classical forms of Haida art.

While Yahgulanaas trained under master carvers, his brief exposure to Chinese brush techniques with Cai Ben Kwan encouraged a departure from the typical expressions of the Haida art form and the development of a new genre of narrative art called "Haida manga."

Haida Manga blends Pacific Northwest Indigenous iconographies and framelines with the graphic dynamism of Asian manga.

Haida Manga is committed to hybridity as a positive force that opens a third space for critical engagement.

It offers an empowering and playful way of viewing and engaging with social issues as it seeks participation, dialogue, reflection, and action.

2009

The original five–meter long mural that was published in 2009 as RED: A Haida manga is on a multi-year exhibit tour.

Hachidori has sold over 100,000 copies in Japan, with a single-day record sale of 20,000 copies.

Flight of the Hummingbird, first published in North America and now available in five languages, is also a bestseller and includes essays contributed by the Dalai Lama and Nobel Peace prize winner Wangari Maathai.

Declaration of Interdependence, written by Dr. David Suzuki, was illustrated by Yahgulanaas.

2010
