Installed mural wrapping a corner of an office: a night skyline with a full moon over blue water and a white figure in a canoe.

[ Description ]

Future Ancestors is a mural and augmented reality installation commissioned by Seneca College for Odeyto, its Indigenous centre. A figure crosses turbulent water in a canoe below the Toronto skyline and a full moon, carrying medicine. The mural holds water teachings, women's bond with water and the city's own relationship to the lake.

The work asks viewers to think of themselves as the ancestors of people not yet born, and of the water those people will inherit. Scanning the mural activates an AR layer that lifts the painted scene into three dimensions.
