Gjoa Haven holds the wrecks of HMS Terror and Erebus, material traces of long-standing Inuit-Qablunaat (non-Inuit) encounters.
These sites are not static ruins but shifting spaces where history, knowledge, and materiality intertwine.
The wrecksite, like my research, is shaped by layered histories and ongoing transformation.
Research as a wrecksite is not just about what is uncovered, but how research itself becomes a contested space, claimed, studied, and sometimes fought over. Shaped by seasonal forces as shifting ice and weather limit access, altering what can be seen, gathered, or known, it also becomes a foundations for new growth.
My research is both a site of "becoming reef," opening new relational possibilities, as it is part of becoming research "heritage."
