?The Encampment is a large-scale public participatory art

installation that proposes the archaeological encampment

as its metaphor. A dig for artifacts is replaced by a dig into

the collective memory of a public space and its history.

The Encampment was created by a team of interdisciplinary

Creative Collaborators who participated in a 6 week process

with the artists to research and transpose 200 stories from

the War of 1812 into visually expressive installations inside

the 200 tents which you see before you.

Each installation was inspired by the story of an individual

living in the Canadas during the War of 1812. Many of these

individuals remain unrecognized as part of our history. They

represent an assemblage of peoples including First Nations,

European immigrants, African Canadians, as well as European

and Native loyalists expelled from the United States after the

American Revolution. Though the majority did not play a role

in the military history of the War of 1812, collectively, they

defined the zeitgeist of our nation. Their stories are as varied as

the people who lived them and include themes of patriotism,

betrayal, treason, profiteering, pacifism and family loyalties –

during a time of invasion and occupation by American forces

until their final expulsion from the Canadas.
