Treaty 7 Art Mural

The concepts behind Treaty 7 Art Mural are balance, mentorship, learning, and staying connected to Treaty 7 lands we share and protect.

Libraries are a source of knowledge that bridges cultures and generations through the written word, stories, and entertainment. This piece depicts yellow hands, representing men and women helpers at ceremonies, feasts, and events who have received some form of mentorship by knowledge keepers and Elders. This piece represents one of the ways knowledge and culture have traditionally been shared between generations.

Meguinis’ piece blends modern with tradition using ledger-style, pictographic hide art combined with a nod to anime illustration styles and bright colours. Every colour and image chosen is symbolic and holds deep meaning, significance, and reverence.
