Written By Bridget Thompson

Open Studio is a video series that takes you inside the studios and creative spaces of Banff Centre's artists.

ᓇᒨᔭ ᓂᑎᑌᐧᐃᐧᓇ ᓂᑕᔮᐣ is an installation displayed on the archway outside the Walter Phillips Gallery by Cree artist Joi T. Arcand. The piece is a visual reminder of the Nêhiyawêwin or Plains Cree (Y dialect) language, and translates into "I don't have my words." Have a peek at this LED light installation that can be viewed on campus until August 2018.
