DESCRIPTION

Installation as part of Chelsea Fringe Festival. Promoting Métis International Garden Festival on the Grand Union Canal at the Dock Kitchen, 450 floating slices of tree create a mysterious forest. Chosen as the festival’s opening site, this large-scale ephemeral installation acts as a bridge between the Quebec’s forestry exportation, the historic floating log landscape, and London’s industrial building.
