As you look down onto Ross Lake, you get a feeling of how tall you are when you are looking down at the top of some very tall evergreens!
St. Boniface Cathedral is a historic landmark in Winnipeg. Father Norbert Provencher (later a bishop) ordered its construction in 1818 in the form of a small log chapel. On July 22, 1968, the residents of Saint Boniface lost the cathedral to a fire. This impressive front is all that remains of the original building.

On Random Walks
The installation On Random Walks revolves around the phenomenon of knots in vibrated granular chains and examines how knots contribute to the understanding of space and movement. In physics, granular chains are used as a model to study the behaviour of string-like objects such as DNA, RNA or polymer macromolecules that often become entangled.
An array of brass plates is set into vibration at infrasonic frequencies, diffused by sub woofers. A bead chain is placed in the center of each plate. Excited by very low, inaudible oscillations they start to move in unpredictable ways, which leads at times to spontaneous knot formations in varying complexity as well as their instantaneous dissolution. The bouncing strings in turn slightly strike the brass plates and create a pulsating field that constantly shifts by time, by the visitors walk through it and the change of one’s perspective.
A production of Overtoon with the support of the Flemish government.

The Canadian Tulip Festival / Festival Canadien des Tulipes in Ottawa the capital city of Canada
The Canadian Tulip Festival began after the Second World War, when Princess Juliana of the Netherlands presented Ottawa with 100,000 tulip bulbs as a token of friendship in 1945.
Canada had provided asylum for the Dutch royal family during the war and played a strong role in the Netherlands’ liberation. While the royal family sought refuge in Ottawa, Princess Juliana gave birth to Princess Margriet on January 19th 1943 at the Ottawa Civic Hospital. The Canadian government temporarily declared the room “Dutch soil,” to ensure that the Princess would remain in line for the throne.
The Netherlands continues to give Ottawa 20,000 tulip bulbs every year.
Ottawa’s first Canadian Tulip Festival took place in May 1953 and opened with an inauguration ceremony at Parliament Hill.
The Canadian Tulip Festival has grown into the largest annual display of tulips in North America.
The Canadian Tulip Festival is also a celebration of the return of spring, with over a million tulips in 50 varieties blooming in public spaces across the National Capital Region.

The Canadian Tulip Festival / Festival Canadien des Tulipes in Ottawa the capital city of Canada
The Canadian Tulip Festival began after the Second World War, when Princess Juliana of the Netherlands presented Ottawa with 100,000 tulip bulbs as a token of friendship in 1945.
Canada had provided asylum for the Dutch royal family during the war and played a strong role in the Netherlands’ liberation. While the royal family sought refuge in Ottawa, Princess Juliana gave birth to Princess Margriet on January 19th 1943 at the Ottawa Civic Hospital. The Canadian government temporarily declared the room “Dutch soil,” to ensure that the Princess would remain in line for the throne.
The Netherlands continues to give Ottawa 20,000 tulip bulbs every year.
Ottawa’s first Canadian Tulip Festival took place in May 1953 and opened with an inauguration ceremony at Parliament Hill.
The Canadian Tulip Festival has grown into the largest annual display of tulips in North America.
The Canadian Tulip Festival is also a celebration of the return of spring, with over a million tulips in 50 varieties blooming in public spaces across the National Capital Region.

The Canadian Tulip Festival / Festival Canadien des Tulipes in Ottawa the capital city of Canada
The Canadian Tulip Festival began after the Second World War, when Princess Juliana of the Netherlands presented Ottawa with 100,000 tulip bulbs as a token of friendship in 1945.
Canada had provided asylum for the Dutch royal family during the war and played a strong role in the Netherlands’ liberation. While the royal family sought refuge in Ottawa, Princess Juliana gave birth to Princess Margriet on January 19th 1943 at the Ottawa Civic Hospital. The Canadian government temporarily declared the room “Dutch soil,” to ensure that the Princess would remain in line for the throne.
The Netherlands continues to give Ottawa 20,000 tulip bulbs every year.
Ottawa’s first Canadian Tulip Festival took place in May 1953 and opened with an inauguration ceremony at Parliament Hill.
The Canadian Tulip Festival has grown into the largest annual display of tulips in North America.
The Canadian Tulip Festival is also a celebration of the return of spring, with over a million tulips in 50 varieties blooming in public spaces across the National Capital Region.
