ERASURE Squared

In November 2021, Fung Ling Feimo had installed artwork on the utility box located at the northeast corner of the historic Canton Block. The project addressed the erasure of local histories and sought to explore the social intersections and cultural intersectionalities that make up Calgary, and to replace existing images on the Canton Block utility box to reflect rather than erase the BIPOC who were/are here.

The work was done in collaboration with indigenous artist, seth cardinal dodginghorse, but was destroyed in recent years by vandalism.

The new artwork ERASURE Squared² draws inspiration from 'A Park Without a Name', a pop-up public art exhibit by artist Annie Wong, on display October 25-28, 2022.

One of the phrases in the series of banners states:

“Time doesn’t heal anything; it just makes a generation forget.”
