Honouring Our Own / Garson Mine 100th Anniversary
Garson Mine 100th Anniversary
This piece was created to mark a major anniversary tied to the history and legacy of Garson Mine. It belongs in a commemorative category — not as memorial work, but as recognition of place, time, and the meaning carried by a site that has been part of the mining story for generations.
A Piece Built Around Legacy, Place, and a Significant Anniversary
Some commemorative work is centred on a person. This work is centred on a place and what that place represents. A 100th anniversary carries a different kind of weight. It marks endurance, industrial history, and a legacy that extends well beyond a single moment.
The purpose of this piece is to reflect that significance in a way that feels grounded, respectful, and connected to the mining community it comes from.
- Historic mine milestone
