Info
This series explores the shifting perceptions and uses of land in their hometown of Peterborough, a colonial settlement located on the Treaty 20 Michi Saagiig territory and in the traditional territory of the Michi Saagiig and Chippewa Nations. Through the use of a variety of cameras, ranging in age from over a hundred years old to those specifically made for the project, and by compiling images of locations taken from different angles, the artist invites viewers to consider the history of the land around them and their own role in shaping its future.
