Primary Futures

Part of the exhibition Emergent/cy, at ENTRE, Vienna. Primary Futures reflects on the changing conditions of Canada’s primary and old-growth forests, focusing on the Western Red Cedar—an ancient species and vital carbon store. Through burning, dyeing, and layering cedar and canvas, Primary Futures traces the marks left by fire, sun, water, and industry, highlighting how these forces are intensifying and reshaping forest ecosystems.
