In Portage, Terrance Houle and Trevor Freeman will dress up in outfits similar to that of a native warrior and Metis culture. Mr. Houle has charted a course throughout the difficult downtown terrain of the tourist and consumerist locales of Vancouver and will portage an upside down canoe from one water body to another. Through the intervening of public space the duet will recreate a historical action about exploration in Canadian history and landscape.

He has been actively involved with Aboriginal communities throughout Canada and the United States all his life. Since graduating from the Alberta College of Art & Design in 1995 he has exhbited in Canada, USA, France, Germany, Australia and England.
