Jane Van Atta is a self-proclaimed “Wild Wire Woman” whose work has been commissioned for the Chiniak Public Library, and has been in exhibitions throughout Alaska. She was also the subject of a spotlight feature for the Kodiak Arts Council. Jane uses what others leave behind, incorporating wire with beach glass, keys, stones and copper. Her salmon sculpture includes non-ferrous man-made objects, found on the beach and altered by the force of the ocean, then wired together with copper.
