by Alert Bay Res school: details
Details of the walls and windows of the now closed St. Michael’s Indian Residential School in Alert Bay. This kind of weathering and aging activity is a very fascinating subject for me to record. Yet these images are a deeply disturbing record and reminder of what happened behind those walls so I’m not sure I could bear to ever print these.

The textures are very effective in close-up. It looks as though the building is decomposing, withering under history’s gaze. A fitting outcome, as I’m sure you’ll agree.
Susan, that is well said and I agree, thank you.
