Colour of the River Running Through Us
Until August 16
Inspired by Samuel de Champlain’s arrival in Ontario 400 years ago and to celebrate the Toronto 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games’s community spirit, the McMichael presents Colour of the River Running Through Us, a large-scale sculptural-based outdoor art installation conceived by multidisciplinary artist, Thom Sokoloski. As part of the project, the McMichael ravine becomes a “river” for an amassed flotilla of canoe-inspired sculptures hovering above visitors; a ceremonial ground on which those who wish to participate can engage in movement meditations to express their experiences of river water through the writing and offering of a haiku poem that will become part of the artwork.
