Light Art Projection

Four Indigenous youth from Calgary received teachings from Siksika Elder, Adrian Wolfleg, about local Indigenous history. Following the teachings, the students learned how to use projection mapping to project their artistic responses onto 3D objects such as trees, grass and tipis.

Each evening at dusk, the artistic responses of these students will be projected on the northwest corner of the Barracks building.

Presented in partnership with the Urban Society of Aboriginal Youth, Emmedia and through a sponsorship from Calgary Arts Development Authority.

This event is being offered as part of an event series The Confluence is hosting to commemorate 150 years since the North-West Mounted Police (NWMP) first arrived at the confluence of the Bow and Elbow Rivers and established Fort Calgary in 1875. The Confluence is taking a reflective approach in sharing the stories that make the site so significant. Find the full event line-up at theconfluence.ca/150
