Artist Profile: Dave Barnes — The Warfare of Perception

In these times of isolation, it seems like so many of us are turning to the arts for salvation, sharing online museum tours, links to films, artists, musicians and photography that inspires us. Art and artists has always been a big part of Mountain Life, so it was a real treat to include Dave Barnes in our 10th Anniversary issue. Dave has been working with the Coast Mountains magazine since issue number 1 and his unique style is ubiquitous with our look. Sitting with Dave in his home and talk about art, life and “the warmth of human error” made for one of my favourite artist profiles we’ve ever done.

“One to five million dollars? A year?!” I reach @jess.kimura in Mexico to break the good news. “Someone tell my sponsors,” she replies. Turns out everything on that biography site is wrong: Jess is barely five feet tall, she was born in 1984 in Vernon, B.C. (the only thing the site got correct) and while she certainly shreds on a skateboard, Jess is most definitely a snowboarder—one of the most influential and respected in the sport.
Last winter Mountain Life: Coast Mountains ran a story on a young ski racer named Bear Yeung and his annual Christmas Toy Drive for BC Children's Hospital. Since 2020, Bear and his buddy Landon Brown have been teaming up with local, national, and International business and residents to collect brand new toys and tablets for children forced to spend the holidays in the hospital.
"When I am outside, I am the best version of myself. Like many of us living in the Canadian Rockies, it is only when we are amongst these soaring summits that we’re truly free, wild and happy. Dr. Stuart Brown says, “Play shapes our brain, helps us foster empathy, helps us navigate complex social groups, and is at the core of creativity and innovation.”
