Biography
Canadian visual artist working in the Coast Salish tradition whose work includes several coin designs for the Royal Canadian Mint.
Broomfield's design was used for a medallion given to all at the closing ceremonies of the 2006 Winter Olympic Games in Turin. The design represented the Squamish, Musqueam, Lil'wat and Tsleil-Waututh, the four nations whose traditional territories were the site of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games. The same design was then used by the Royal Canadian Mint for a $75 gold coin.
Broomfield also designed a $300 face value coin issued by the mint which features a moon mask. The mint struck 1,200 of the coins and sold them at $1,600 per coin.
