ᐄᓃᐤ (ÎNÎW), pronounced (EE-NU) is a Cree word meaning ​“I am of the Earth.” The Art Park is situated on ancestral lands of the Indigenous peoples whose descendants entered into Treaty with the British Crown resulting in the territory opening for settlement. River Lot 11 acknowledges the historic river lot originally home to Métis landowner Joseph McDonald. The park is located within Queen Elizabeth Park in Edmonton’s North Saskatchewan River Valley.

The City of Edmonton, Confederacy of Treaty Six First Nations, Métis Nation of Alberta, Edmonton Arts Council and Indigenous artists and community members partnered to develop the Indigenous Art Park. The park features six artworks by Canadian Indigenous artists.

The artists created artworks that ​“tell the story of this place.” They are: iskotew — Amy Malbeuf (Rich Lake, Alberta), pehonan — Tiffany Shaw-Collinge (Edmonton, Alberta), mikikwan — Duane Linklater (Moose Cree First Nation, Ontario), mamohkamatowin (Helping Each Other) — Jerry Whitehead (James Smith First Nation, Saskatchewan), Reign — Mary Anne Barkhouse (Nimpkish Band, Kwakiutl First Nation), and Preparing to Cross the Sacred River — Marianne Nicolson (Dzawada’enuxw Nation). The Indigenous Art Park was curated by Candice Hopkins (Carcross Tagish First Nation, Gaanax.âdi clan) — noted curator, scholar and artist.

In 2019 ᐄᓃᐤ (ÎNÎW) River Lot 11∞ was recognized by the Americans for the Arts Public Art Network Year in Review and in 2021, it was included in Destination Art (Art Essentials) by Amy Dempsey, Thames & Hudson.
