Artist: Fujiwara Takahiro
Description: "Fujiwara Takahiro’s "Into the Blue" is a giant, illuminated, transparent cone-shaped balloon. Its shape is achieved through the stacking of inflatable donut-shaped soft acrylic tubes of successively diminishing sizes. Floating in the middle of the Eaton Centre, "Into the Blue" will present two distinct faces. From a distance, it will reflect and refract the surrounding light. Up close, one will be able to walk beneath the work and experience it as an environment. Looking up into the interior will present a dazzling light array, refracted through the complex layers of soft acrylic material."

This stunning art project at Toronto's Scotiabank Nuit Blanche festival featured a series of live dancers in a giant tank, that would fill and drain with water as they tried to complete daily, mundane tasks. Imagine you were just going about your day... then boom, water gushes in, because all of the polar ice caps have melted! A very poignant piece on climate change.
Back home from Nuit Blanche across Toronto tonight. It was a night of few highlights but people made it fun. This was perhaps the most unusual sight I saw, a child dancing with a hula hoop in a smokey Queen Street West shopfront in front of a light. I don't think it was an official exhibit and I hate to think about the poor child's lungs but it was attracting a big crowd!
