They visited the Mi''kmaq Nation communities and Wolastoqey Nation communities. The result was an exhibition and a book, a journal that captured the essence of the road trip through Graff''s words and Syliboy''s magnificent photographs.The book captures their high-octane meeting with heavy metal musician Eric Miller; Robert Pictou''s model boats and surprising works of art; their poignant visit with John Seca Labillois, who conjured a drum from the trunk of a 600-year-old tree; Peter Augustine''s collection of antlers; the sacred site of the Sundance ceremony at Big Cove; and the story of the Brooks family''s efforts to repatriate the 200-year-old Grandfather Akwiten canoe.
