Limited//Limitless was made for the tenth anniversary of Ice Follies, the biennial of art on the frozen surface of Lake Nipissing in North Bay. A steel and mirrored box stands on the ice. Inside, a single 3D-printed walleye repeats into infinity between two-way mirrors. Scanning a QR code opens the world beneath the surface: the fish and the ecosystem that hold up life above.

The title points to the relationship between people and fish that has run since the beginning of the Nishinaabeg. Fish relatives are food, spirit, medicine and livelihood, and they have given their lives for us to survive. The ice is a thin boundary between the limited world we stand on and the limitless one below, and the lens of a phone becomes a way of paying attention to it.
