Walking Lines/Saskatchewan is a collaborative body of work by Associate Professor Rodney Konopaki and Rhonda Neufeld (’92).

Both artists came to Saskatchewan in the summer of 2012 to visit evocative prairie locations. The drawings and prints in this exhibition are landscapes deciphered through their experiential work process. With a drawing board and paper or woodblock held between them, they walked abreast over prairie terrain recording, with drawing or engraving tools, what they saw and experienced. These works mapped their tactile and sensory environment, and evolved as they walked together. They recorded marks that were stimulated by what they saw, heard, or felt.
