forest documents, Reading Room
Accompanying forest documents, a reading room in collaboration with librarian-artist John Latour, provides a number of publications and documents from our interdisciplinary research team, Elastic Spaces, on a diagonal to a large format video projection, giving the forest spaces its voices. The other side of the free-standing wall provides a viewing room with benches, for immersion into an old growth forest, through a spatialized video projection (in stereoscopic 3D).
The Elastic Spaces research presented on several tables includes the following: publications from the researchers we worked with over now a seven, eight, nine year period of time, a number of documents from the Ecoforestry Institute Society, and a forthcoming chapbook memoir from Elastic Spaces Press by Pacheedaht Elder William (Bill) Jones, Chronicles of the Forest: From the Walbran to Fairy Creek | What the Forest Needs, Our Heart Needs (2025).
