Public Artwork for the City of Sault Ste. Marie, Twin Pad Arena, 2023

Creating this 6-foot-tall x 15-foot-long public artwork piece for the City of Sault Ste. Marie's new Twin Pad Arena was such a fun and incredible experience. My partner and I traveled to Sault Ste. Marie with our dogs and stayed for a week while we explored and I took photos and scanned natural elements. It is really important for me to feature imagery that is familiar and local to the area that my work is being installed in. I want to encourage the ability for folks to connect with the imagery and have an instant/familiar/nostalgic feeling when viewing the work. This piece features sourced imagery alongside analog photographs and scanned natural imagery (from my flatbed scanner and 3D scanner).
