Artist Jenie Gao carving a circular woodblock at a large table in a heritage building with a barrel ceiling and a large bay window. The building is constructed with old dark wood paneling. There is a modern looking chandelier made up of geometric shapes hanging from the ceiling, in contrast with the surroundings.

Jenie is a person of Taiwanese-Chinese descent. They have salt-and-pepper black hair and in this photo are wearing layered black and gray sweaters and a scarf.

Gratitude to Musqueam, Tsleilwaututh & Squamish for their ongoing caretaking.

Gratitude for water & the balance of all the elements. I pray that all of us, despite our level of grief and suffering, can feel grounded by the earth.

Free us all.
