Humber River Art: Part II

By Irene Fantopoulos

I took a walk over to the Humber Bridge today to see if any progress had been made since last week regarding the completion of the interactive sculpture of two squids suspended off the arch of the Bridge.  I couldn't tell if I was looking at the final product as there was a sign saying there is more to come.

Colourful globes that appear to be Christmas decorations, are threaded through the wires. I believe they depict water bubbles coming out of the mouths of the squid. That's my guess.

Humber River Art

By Irene Fantopoulos

Here's what's going on in the Humber River these days. I've written about this area in previous blogs. The news this week is that new interactive art will be added to the Humber River Bridge.

The art is a gift to the City of Toronto, Ontario, Canada by a group of local volunteer artists along with interactive arts which will be on display over the next two months on the iconic Humber River Bridge, shown above. Pictures of the art to follow in the coming days.

They are looking for contributions as all of the work: the mounting, the rental of equipment and the art itself is donated for free. Click on the links below where you can check out their video describing the project, their next steps and what contribution you can make!
