[BCMA] Woven Eco-Art Water Snake in the Garden

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Year of the Snake 
Eco-Arts outdoor sculpture by artist Alastair Heseltine

 



 

>From January 21 to the end of April, a giant 40 foot long snake sculpture
made out of green willow and other organic materials will reside in the
Garden next to the Jade Water Pavilion. Commissioned by the Eco-Arts program
at the Community Arts Council Vancouver (CACV), this snake is created by
community members with the guidance and vision of Alastair Heseltine to
celebrate the Lunar New Year. Alastair Heseltine is a prominent Hornby
Island artist who has worked extensively with environmental mixed media. The
green willow usually sprouts around April, so the snake will truly become a
living object and achieve a whole different look in the spring!

 

Launch date: Jan 21, 2013
Stays till: May (depending on the condition of the sculpture)
