Tepkik 2018-2019
Tepkik, 2018-2019, an installation by artist Jordan Bennett (Mi'kmaq, from Stephenville Crossing, Newfoundland and Labrador) is suspended in the Scotiabank Great Hall. The work is inspired by Mi'kmaq petroglyphs and the traditional colours of Mi'kmaq quillwork. The installation's shape suggests the Milky Way, while the designs on the banners represent ancestral cosmology, referencing the sky and the water worlds.
