This massive piece of art is called “Yellowknife Cultural Crossroads”. It’s a collaborative and evolving piece by Native, Dene, French- and English-Canadian artists to commemorate cooperation between the cultures. The main elements are the bronze sculpture, a steel teepee and some 1,500 signs and symbols painted on and sometimes carved into the rock.
