Tailings

Melissa Naef

Tailings explores the characteristics of Dawson City, Yukon, through long-form documentary photography. It speaks of life in the far northern, and gives voice to the homebodies, and reminisces in the glory days. Through an exploration of Dawson City, this collection of photographs is a collision of both admiration and degradation of one's hometown.

Join us on June 12th 2025 in the PBG Gallery for an exclusive Tailings book launch and exhibition of Melissa Naef’s work as part of Yukon Riverside Arts Fest’s annual Gallery Hop.

Artist Talk with Melissa Naef to follow on June 15th 2025.

Originally featured in the Anna Leonowens Gallery in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
