People sing day or night to thank Mother Earth for all her gifts; to express love; to heal the sick; to ask for a successful hunt; to seek guidance. This pure gold collectable coin features the Indigenous Singing Moon mask in ultra high relief and full colour. Night is a particularly magical time for the K'ómoks and Kwakwaka'wakw Indigenous peoples in British Columbia as the community comes together to sing to the rhythmic beat of a drum. As masked dancers breathe movement into the song, the outside world falls away, and the melody floats to the sky. Sound waves become moonlight and stars dance to reveal the inter-connectivity of all things.
