REMATRIATION PAVILION
This versatile multi-use space serves as a gathering place for classes, workshops, feasts, and community events here at Indigenous Creatives Collective.
We extend our gratitude to Sawhorse Revolution's staff, mentors, and dedicated youth cohort for their incredible work in building this structure. Special thanks to roster artists and leaders Jennifer Angaiak Wood and Kimberly Corinne Deriana, who guided students and wove Indigenous wisdom into every step of the process.
About the Project
The pavilion incorporates original timbers from Deriana's Brings the Medicine Sundial, a 2019 temporary public sculpture that brought healing, recognition, and awareness of this land's First Peoples, installed our first inaugural exhibition at ARTS at King Street Station that ran from March 23-August 4, 2019.
The original installation featured six 28-foot tall fir tree poles forming a semicircle and public gathering place, created by artist and architectural designer Kimberly Corinne Deriana in collaboration with Coast Salish carvers. As Deriana's first major public art commission, we're honored to reunite with the work, materials, and artists who have been with us since the beginning of our organization’s history.
