dc.description | Detail, cupola on variant of model "Jonquille" (1425 sq. ft.); Exhibited at the First Nations Garden Pavilion of the Montreal Botanical Garden. The artwork refers to the creation story of the traditional Huron-Wendat culture. There are several versions of the story about the creation of the world among the Iroquois. The artists believe the story of the woman who falls from the sky and creates the world holds great universal significance. Stemming from the fall of this "mother of humanity" is the birth of a rich and diverse world made up of opposing forces, symbolized by twins borne from either herself or her daughter. "Aataentsic" means "ancient one." The mural is a collaboration between Sylvie Paré, a Huron-Wendat Métis artist and Robert Laliberté, professional photographer.
