Diptych, west wall of on 5.972×10^24 kg (The Situation Room)



Pit (2005)





gut, fr. 1918. (Vancouver archives, archival photo),is the exact location of Pit.



The site pictured in these photos, , in particular,
the appropriation of an important trading road that extended from the Fraser River into what is pictured in gut., is on the stolen land of the K'emk'emeláy̓ (colonially known as Vancouver BC.), situated on the stolen, unceded, ancestral and current territories
of the xʷməθkʷəyəm (Musqueam), Sḵw̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish), and sə̓lil̓wətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. With respect and acknowledgement
of their aeons-long nationhood, cultures, knowledge, languages and all relations, we support ongoing actions and initiatives here and in the unceded Wet'suwet'en territories.
