DEFENSE/DEFIANCE

 

Defense/Defiance: 

Sited in Montreal, Quebec, Canada as part of the Paysages Ephemeres outdoor sculpture symposium.

​

Is it an act of defiance that a tree finds itself thrust through a garden shed?

Is it an act by the forest in response to the constant incursions upon the natural world by urbanization?

Is the gesture a result of one of the frequently recurring tornadoes we are enduring in recent years?

These questions and others could arise when witnessing Defense/Defiance.

First our garden sheds then perhaps later our homes…?
