GROW Land Art Installation Calgary, AB, Canada 2021

GROW is an experimental work installed onto a grass field in Northern Calgary. The objective of the project was to provide the community with a novel and sustainably fabricated temporary public art installation which did not impede the use of the park. GROW is a 100’ by 100’ temporary drawing on the grass completed using non-toxic grass dye mixed with fertilizer and iron. The intention of the work is to be highly visible for a few weeks until the dye washes away. Then as the season progresses the fertilizer and iron take effect, encouraging the work to re-emerge as lush, dark green grass.

This project was completed with the support of the Mount Pleasant Community Association, the Parks Foundation and the City of Calgary.
