Description

This book documents multi-disciplinary artist Terrance Houle's first major solo exhibition.

Joining the Canadian Armed Forces at a time when Aboriginal men were rare in the service, he travelled around the world, writing to his mother weekly.

Offering insight into a young Native man's journey and relationship with his Ojibway mother, this work speaks of home, connection, place, and time.

The term Givn'r is particular to rural areas and means: To work tvery hard; to get wasted and rock as hard as possible; and to finish a job or task in an efficient and quick manner.
