Creative Access Description
A colour landscape image of works installed in a gallery space with white walls and cement floors. In the centre of the space, there is a desk made out of scraps of industrial metal including rusty metal square legs and a thick glass top along with two dark blue chairs behind it. On top of the desk, is a white desktop computer, complete with a white keyboard and mouse, and two stacks of folded poster brochures. Towering behind the desk is a tall wooden structure made out of plywood planks and wooden posts with objects including binders, tapes, small analogue TV and speakers, placed in slots all around the structure. On the wall to the right, there are posters, a small video projection and memorabilia mounted in a salon-style hanging including an Indigenous hand drum with the word “grunt” written on the stretched hide in a black, lowercase serif font. On the left side of the image, at the back of the space, is a steel ladder standing up against a wall extending to the top of it. To the right of this is a console table with wooden legs and a white and orange plank, possibly from a traffic barrier, supporting a glass top. The barrier plank has the text “CITY OF VANCOUVER” printed on it in a black, standard sans-serif font.Description
