The iron figures in
"Full Circle" are direct casts of five wood originals that were carved
and blackened in a fire on the Canadian prairie. From there began
a journey that took them 35,000 kilometers that took them through every
province and every territory. From Newfoundland they navigated the
Northwest Passage to Tuktoyaktuk. Down the Arctic ice road, through
the mountains of the Yukon to the Queen Charlotte Islands, the "Watchers"
returned to the plains five years later. Having nearly traced the
geographical boundaries of Canada, they had come "Full Circle".
