The Burn
Heal and cleanse through the restorative power of rising heat, ash, smoke and water of The Burn, an interactive installation inspired by the universally sacred elements of fire and water.
The Burn was a months long installation touring the City of Toronto’s historic museums, culminating in a 24 hour take-over of Nathan Phillips Square (City Hall) on March 12th 2023.
The Burn was created by multi-talented, award-winning artist Roger Mooking in collaboration with interdisciplinary artist and designer Javid JAH and multi-disciplinary artist and Elder Catherine Tammaro.
