Street Public Installation

The installation was meant to be located in the far north, near a regionally significant building. At times, the Northern Lights appear there; at other times, it’s the land of the polar day.

It was envisioned as a place where people could rest or wait for a better life — shaped like a chum, the traditional dwelling of the region’s Indigenous peoples. A place to reflect on higher things, to enjoy the Northern Lights refracted through dichroic glass, and eventually move on to warmer lands, carrying with them the memory of this place
