The neighborhood of Curry in Calgary AB is currently in transition from a Canadian Forces base to a new residential development. Canada Lands Corporation was celebrating a big milestone in reopening a greenspace that had been fenced off for a year for a re-naturalization process, and wanted to put together a light based winter event to commemorate the occasion.
They hired me to co-ordinate a full site lighting project and work with Adrian Stimson -a member of the local Siksika Nation, artist, and veteran. I built a few new works for the event and did the technical side of 2 collaborative new works with Adrian. The lit up paintings in the gallery are Adrian’s work.
The installation was up from January 16 to March 22 2023.
