Woodland Be[AR] is one of my first AR sculptures. It rebuilds Norval Morrisseau's Medicine Bear in three dimensions as a free, weightless object anyone can place in the world with a phone. I made it after watching There Are No Fakes, the documentary on the forgery ring built around Morrisseau's work. A painting can be faked and sold. An AR sculpture costs nothing to own and nothing to share.

The bear has been placed and photographed thousands of times on Instagram. It showed as an AR activation in Land Back, the sixth Contemporary Native Art Biennial in Montreal, curated by Michael Patten with Alexandra Nordstrom, and returned as a wall-sized wheatpaste in Hyper Woodland at the Thunder Bay Art Gallery in 2026.
