PROJECTED CLIMATE ADAPTATIONS FOR SASKATCHEWAN SETTLEMENT AREAS ON TREATY 6 TERRITORY (traditional territories of the Cree, Dene, Nakota, Saulteaux, and Ojibwe and the homeland of the Métis Nation) 2030

PROJECTED CLIMATE ADAPTATIONS FOR SASKATCHEWAN SETTLEMENT AREAS ON TREATY 6 TERRITORY, 2030 imagines a near‑future prairie landscape where familiar rural architectures—grain elevators, community halls, repair shops, rail infrastructure—are unmistakably reshaped by the pressures of a changing climate. Rendered as precise vector line drawings, these works operate like speculative field notes: they project how everyday structures might be retrofitted, repurposed, or re‑situated as communities navigate shifting ecological, economic, and cultural conditions. By situating these adaptations within Treaty 6 Territory, the series foregrounds the layered histories and responsibilities embedded in the land, inviting viewers to consider how climate futures intersect with ongoing relationships to place, stewardship, and settlement. The result is a quietly provocative cartography of possibility—one that asks how the built environment might evolve through the incremental, inventive adjustments of people living with change.
