Ociciwan Contemporary Arts Collective / RPK Architects
Revitalizing a vacant building, on a prominent corner of the Quarters neighborhood in downtown Edmonton, Ociciwan Contemporary Art Collective (OCAC) will provide a physical home for local Indigenous Canadian modern art. The building?s new multifaceted mirrored façade is symbolic of the collective?s commitment to innovation and creativity; the ever-changing reflections are a commentary on how the building and the art within can lead to shifting contemporary dialogues around indigenous traditions, breaking normative expectations. A secondary reading implies a reinterpretation of Métis beadwork, the facade as tectonic adornment.
