  • Description

Print Name: Pinawa Dam
Captured: September 2009 | Location: 50.2141, -95.9266 **Pinawa Dam Provincial Heritage Park**, Manitoba, Canada
The Story: A powerful scene capturing the **majestic concrete ruins** of the Pinawa Generating Station, Manitoba's first year-round hydroelectric plant, which began operating in 1906 and was crucial to the early growth of Winnipeg. Closed in 1951 to support the more efficient Seven Sisters station downstream, the site was later used by the Canadian military for demolition practice, which shaped some of the rugged, "Roman Coliseum"-like appearance of the ruins today. The image perfectly balances the sturdy, historical concrete structure with the lush, green natural landscape of the Canadian Shield as nature slowly reclaims the site, with water from the Winnipeg River still flowing through the ruins as rapids and cascades. Captured in September 2009, the photo freezes a breathtaking second of raw, untamed Canadian nature amidst a rich historical backdrop.

Every print is personally inspected, and hand-signed by Métis artist Jason Lee.

Media Options & Print Details
Choose the perfect medium to bring this piece of Canadian landscape into your space:
 
Museum Grade Rag Paper (Fine Art Paper)
  • Best for: Classic museum-quality collections and custom framing.
  • Details: I use the Palo Duro Soft Gloss Rag from Red River Paper, A 315gsm, 100% cotton fiber paper with a subtle sheen that enhances the deep colors and dramatic sky. It is archival, acid-free, and meets ISO 9706 standards for long-term conservation.
  • Shipping: Shipped unframed in a rigid tube or flat-packed (8x12).

Gallery Wrapped Canvas Blanco Satin Canvas (Ready to Hang)

  • Best for: A modern, frameless look with an artistic, tactile feel.
  • Details: I use the Blanco Satin Canvas from Red River Paper, Heavyweight 350gsm canvas gallery-wrapped over a 1.5" wood frame. Finished with three coats of protective varnish for UV and moisture resistance.
  • Ready to Hang: Arrives fully assembled and ready to adorn your wall.

ChromaLuxe Metallic Panels (Vibrant & Durable)

  • Best for: High-impact areas where clarity and color "pop" are the priorities.
  • Details: Images are infused directly into aluminum panels for breathtaking depth and a glossy finish. These are scratch-resistant, waterproof, and can be cleaned with standard glass cleaner.
  • Float Mount: Arrives with a hidden rear mount that makes the art appear to "levitate" 1/2" off the wall.
