Born in the remote northern community of Fort St. John, British Columbia, to a Dane-zaa mother and a Swiss-Canadian father, Brian Jungen's dual heritage often provides the themes and subject matter for his work. Brian Jungen: Friendship Centre examines over 80 pieces from Jungen's imaginative body of work, including sculptures, drawings, and film stills -- from whale skeletons composed of white plastic chairs and gas cans decorated with floral beadwork designs to totem pole-like forms constructed out of golf bags and Northwest Coast masks made out of repurposed sneakers. This generously illustrated volume details Jungen's material explorations of a long history of inequality, the environment, and Indigenous ways of knowing and making.
