A group of framed drawings are installed to imitate the shape of a rockslide called Frank Slide located in Crows nest pass near the border between the province of Alberta and British Columbia in Canada.

The drawings are produced by taking the images of buildings and historic sites of the municipality published in visitor information brochures. The piece is an attempt to examine as to how historic and geographic features of a particular region are understood and experienced by visitors under an influence of tourism and preconceptions. Produced during the residency in Gushul studio, located nearby the rockslide.
