Unweaving the Rainbow
Alice Aycock
Description
Located on Queen's Quay East Street, the sculptural installation is visible from pedestrian and automobile traffic. It operates as a symbolic entrance arch. Within the arch, various elements have been placed almost as if they have been blown there by the wind. The vortex modules within the sculpture are a reference to the large installation from Phase 1 of the Pier 27 project. The curvilinear screens contain fiber optics and LED lighting. Overall, the piece suggests exuberant energy.
Commissioned by: Pier 27 Toronto Inc.
