Morningstar is a politically charged, site-specific installation created for the Pool of the Black Star, a circular room in the middle of the Manitoba Legislative Building. Received positively by politicians, staff, and Indigenous communities, the installation was the first public artwork on the premises, and it charged this political site with emotion.

The work illumines the seat of government following politician and chief Elijah Harper’s vote in the Manitoba Legislature, when he rejected the passing of the Meech Lake Accord in 1990.
