Kawa'pomahkaiks

Artist inspiration came from engagement sessions with people in the community, specifically the local area children who drew sketches of animals. Laser-cut steel silhouettes of a pronghorn antelope, coyote, badger, prairie dog, beaver, prairie hare, black footed ferret, swift fox, and burrowing owl are placed within a planter to playfully interact with people as they take a seat or wander by. Visitors are encouraged to learn the names of the animals and the Siksiká (Blackfoot) pronunciations.
