House Post Installation

Area 58 Innovation

Projects > Public and Private Art > House Post Installation

We were honoured to be able to assist with the final phase of these powerful artworks with their installation. We consulted with the artists and installed them at leləm̓ Village for this House Post created by Susan Point, Brent Sparrow and Thomas Cannell.

We are very familiar with this site as we have done several other installations in this same development. In this instance we first did a site check for measurements and to confirm install concepts. We organized materials and equipment needed for the install process. While on site we took all necessary precautions to mitigate any damage with existing conditions. We take great care with the artwork to ensure no damage and proper and secure fit.

From the artists:
“We’ve created a symbolic gateway, which is always an open doorway to the leləm̓ community. Our carved old-growth western red cedar gateway symbolizes relationships.”
