Copper Canopy: An Installation of Light, Shadow, and Community
In the chaos of urban life, we often forget to take a moment to breathe. Copper Canopy offers a moment of stillness – inviting visitors to stand beneath something that feels alive.
Stop by Ontario Square and immerse yourself under a canopy of copper leaves.
By day, the leaves catch the light and scatter soft shadows across the ground. By night, lighting transforms the installation – casting intricate patterns on surrounding surfaces and shifting the atmosphere of the space entirely. As wind moves through the piece, the leaves gently sway and rustle, adding a subtle layer of sound to the experience.
Copper Canopy responds to its surroundings – shifting with the light, weather, and movement of people passing beneath it. The installation evolves throughout the day, offering a dynamic and reflective space in the heart of the city.
Designed by: RAW Works, with Roland Rom Colthoff, Suleman Khan, Elmira Yousefi, Aaron Hendershott, and fabricated by Anex Works.
