In 2018, South Point was renamed by Elders, Clarence and Barbara Nepinak, who were offered<em> asemaa </em>(tobacco) to uncover the name for the path, now also known as <em>Niizhoziibean </em>or ‘the place we come together’. Here, directly on the path, <em>Niimaamaa</em> stands as a colossal thirty-foot tall sculpture made of polished painted steel, copper, and core ten metal. <em>Niimaamaa </em>actively participates as a symbol of decolonization in space and place. Her site-specific location (re)minds, (re)tells, and (re)maps The Forks for visitors who seek to learn about the past or see themselves in the future.</p>}, number={1}, journal={At The Forks}, author={Black, Honoure}, year={2023}, month={Feb.} }
