We were established in June 1992. Our goal is to produce and market the works of Canadian and Pacific Northwest artists whose themes express the life-style, landscape, people,culture and wildlife of these locations.
Many of our staff are artists themselves and very knowledgeable about the products and services we provide. We believe we are your best resource when you are looking for creative solutions or materials.
Alcheringa has worked with private collectors, museums, decorators and corporate clients. We are pleased to provide free consultations to clients developing projects of all sizes. Please browse our Commissions section or Contact Us for ideas and references. Alcheringa is an Aboriginal Australian word for the Dreamtime, the mythical time of creation, when the world and all living creatures were sung into existence.
We are proud to carry on the tradition, begun in the 1860's in Victoria of the first dealers in classic and contemporary Northwest coast native art. Including traditional potlatch masks, basketry, shamanic devices, button blankets, totem poles, artefacts, and much more. There is always a selection of plains beadwork and artefacts and other North American, Oceanic, and African tribal art. From a Tokugawa, Shogun's Gift cover to a Stag horn carving of the Virgin Mary and don't forget the odd painting we have had by Copley, Rostraten, and Boudain. We seek the unusual and often find it.
Wolf/Sheep is a collective of about 20 artists, designers, writers, multimedia producers and coordinators who's goal is to bring a unique art experience to the people of Victoria. For this reason the collective has merged art production and gallery space into one storefront Wolf/Sheep Arthouse.We at Wolf/Sheep aim to demystify contemporary art and make it available to everyone.
