"It was the town of Cartwright that inspired its concept from start to finish. I visited them during their heritage week celebrations, and had a moment to speak with many wonderful residents about what made Cartwright and the surrounding area special to them. There were several important themes that came to light like culture, sustainable harvesting practices, intergenerational knowledge sharing, and creating a bridge from the past to the present in the hopes to inspire a better future. From youth to elders there was a common reflection that the land was vital to their wellbeing." says artist Monika Rumbolt.
