[ Description ]
Intertribal is a mixed-media mural at Hart House, University of Toronto, showing the Na-Me-Res Traditional Pow Wow at Fort York against the Toronto skyline. Dancers move in regalia beneath Migizi, the eagle, who watches over the gathering. Pink light washes the mural from above and below, and a neon Migizi hangs on the facing wall.
Scanning a QR code activates the augmented reality layer. The eagle lifts out of the mural and circles the room. An intertribal is the dance that welcomes everyone into the circle regardless of nation or background. The mural extends the same invitation inside a building that was built to keep people out.
