Three slide projectors blend, at random, slides from my father’s archive from when he was travelling across Canada 45 years ago working on the railway, and my own slides from current visits to the same locations in the Rockies and North American Western coast. The newly formed images are composed by chance and then photographed, offering prescient insights into our future lands as they transform from the shifting climate.
