Quoting from the text, Garten notes that “water moves everywhere, into every gorge, crack and crevice of the earth, neither shrinking from nor avoiding its natural path. In this way, it is true to its own nature.” Bright Waters offers this contemplation as a piece of public art that aims to remind viewers to play an active role in keeping water clean and true to its own nature.

Integrated along Beresford street. Rain gardens are a small but important part of the natural and manmade system of water infrastructure in the greater watershed that sustains the City.
Together they are a play of form and meaning; the forms identical yet seeming entirely different.”

blacktail - Muse Atelier - 2015 📍 burnaby
Elegant and elemental forms rest on nearby plazas, as if they were shed by a mythical deer. Each form creates a space. blacktail, lies upright like an open hand, providing a place to rest. Two blocks away, shed, an inversion of blacktail, invites you into its shelter, like a child playing in a fort in the forest. These sculptural forms imply an entire landscape, yet also convey an intimacy.
