This original painting by Beth Hill captures the stark beauty and fragile resilience of Kwigillingok, a remote Alaskan village where powerful storms and rapid coastal erosion threaten homes, traditions, and entire ways of life. Inspired by Beth’s own experiences in the community, the artwork evokes the quiet tension between land and sea—where a single red boat rests against a fading shoreline beneath brooding skies. It serves as both a tribute to the people of Kwigillingok and a reflection on the visible impacts of global warming in Alaska’s coastal regions.
