Loop Fall Session 1

Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve had 2 out of 3 of our Loop fall sessions where we partnered with Kiyooka Ohe Arts Centre and Tamara to create orange shirt and red dress paper sculptures to honour and memorialize the lost indigenous children of residential schools and the MMIW as a way of exploring the themes of fall such as rebirth and change, and respectfully using natural materials from the land to create paper as part of our experiential research for the new Loop Genesis sculptures.

During Fall Session 1, there was a tour of the sculpture park and the woods behind the arts centre to collect plants to make paper next week and watching a day of the dead performance by artists in residence there!
