Marking
Silhouettes of people from this site's past and present appear and disappear within the palisade.
About the work
A series of carved wood members punctuated with traces of red light outline the original 1875 Fort Calgary, embodying its impermanence and dynamic energy. Silhouettes of people from this site's past and present appear and disappear within the palisade, reminiscent of the way the wind blows shapes across the southern Alberta grasses.
