The following series of pictures depict a project that I worked on with my mother.  I was asked to be part of the Art Garden project in Collingwood.  My mother designed a fall and winter garden and I designed the sculpture.

This sculpture was inspired by the name Champlain originally gave Georgian Bay.  He called her the La Mer Douce, or the Gentle Sea.  Inside of her womb lies a glass ball that holds the water of the Bay.  This piece is dedicated to all those people who worked at the Collingwood Shipyards.
