The “Koinoburi” Labyrinth… Attendees of Powell Street Festival were invited to contribute artwork via painting or markering an oversized Fish “Scale”. Each “Scale” was then placed upon “The Koinoburi“, a Giant Outstallation Artwork placed in Oppenheimer Park as part of this year’s Powell Street Festival.

TOAD. Temporary Obsolete Abandoned Derelict. That’s the current category of Urban Infrastructure for this Wading Pool in Ashbridges Bay Park, Woodbine Beach, East Toronto. It’s no longer a Wading Pool, nor will it the water pump ever be working again. So, I painted a Labyrinth here years ago, and it is still there. Quietly, in […]

TOAD.

Temporary Obsolete Abandoned Derelict.

That’s the current category of Urban Infrastructure for this Wading Pool in Ashbridges Bay Park, Woodbine Beach, East Toronto.

It’s no longer a Wading Pool, nor will it the water pump ever be working again.

So, I painted a Labyrinth here years ago, and it is still there.

Quietly, in the middle of green space, this Labyrinth of mine . . .

In Toronto, A City of Labyrinths.

Chalked a Labyrinth in Glen Park, East Vancouver

I visited Glen Park, in an East Vancouver Neighbourhood I was familiar with back when I was here in 1996. Encountering such a huge wide patch of asphalt was too tempting to leave alone. Out popped the chalk, up sprang a Labyrinth, round and round the children ran.
