Cheryl Alexander's documentary about Takaya first caught my attention. Victoria is my hometown. I am familiar with Discovery Island and have enjoyed views from Oak Bay towards this small island coastline. As an artist who explores topics of social theory, I felt compelled towards Takaya, this lone wolf story as it parallels my experiences and perspective living in Victoria. The city is beautiful and well gentrified, yet isolated and protected on Vancouver Island. Takaya appeared to live an idyllic protected life on Discovery Island, and met a tragic end upon venturing away.
