forest documents, Reading Room
Accompanying, forest documents, a Reading Room in collaboration with librarian-artist John Latour, provides a number of publications and documents to give the forest spaces its voices, along with a forthcoming chapbook-memoir by Pacheedaht Elder William (Bill) Jones, Chronicles of the Forest: From the Walbran to Fairy Creek | What the Forest Needs, Our Heart Needs (2025).
A reading room with a table with a number of publications from the Ecoforestry Institute Society, and the researchers we worked with over now a seven, eight, nine year period of time are on a diagonal to the 2D wall screen of the video.
A lectern on the other side of diagonal with the wall holds Bill Jones’ chapbook memoir of the Walbran old-growth forest along with the Fairy Creek protests. The other side of the wall allows the viewer to immerse into the stereoscopic 3D (S3D, optical polarized) old-growth forest viewing space with benches.
