From Vancouver to Ottawa

Tuesday, October 28, 2014 

At 6am, Jonathan and I drove through downtown Vancouver for our flight to Ottawa. Quiet streets and intersection lights blinking a constant green made for a quick commute to the airport.

These pics are from the Vancouver airport.

I am interested in how people interact with art. This sculpture greets you after you clear security. When I approached the sculpture, one man was using the base as a shelf for some of his personal items. The other man was using the sculpture's left foot as a hook for his suit jacket.
