This series was created during an artist residency at the Wallace Stegner House in Eastend, SW, Saskatchewan. These images attempt to capture a unique landscape that rolls out of the coulees at the foot of the Cypress Hills. There is but one community left where the roads lead to the surrounding ghost towns, filled with homesteads preserved by their descendants. As Stegner describes it “...a land with no transition between earth and sky: in the heat, the horizons melted and ran; on the flats, the sky and clouds moved in the reflecting sloughs.” It is a land inhabited by independent and profoundly ingenious individuals who continue to adapt to their changing environment. It is a land where geology, history and human habitation are inextricably intertwined in a community that is also an incubator for artists, historians and writers. The Red Coat Trail winds through it beside the encampment where Sitting Bull retreated and down the road from where the Métis made their winter encampments. It is a place where the First Nations often sought out its rich resources. There are infinite horizons, sheltered coulees and exposed high benches.
