The project in a nutshell
These giant steel metallic flowers, over 45 feet tall, designed and imagined by Montreal visual artist LeBicar, contribute to improving the experience of workers in the area in order to create a welcoming place to meet up with friends, colleagues and family.
Manufactured by Elephant Play and illuminated by the expertise of Lucion Media, the flowers remind passers-by that, there is beauty and goodness in the little things surrounding them, regardless of the weather or the season.
“My work with flowers is based on a quote from Henri Matisse who said, ‘There are flowers everywhere for those who want to see them. To me, these flowers are a very powerful symbol, a celebration of resilience. I hope they will revive the eclectic and diverse downtown in their own way. Keep your eyes open, flowers are everywhere!”.– LeBicar
