From the artist: “This seemingly abandoned construction site, slated for condo development for years, occupies a huge piece of land on the South side of the Danforth. It’s separated from the street by a long plywood wall and serves no purpose to the community. When I saw its huge blue East wall, I decided I had to put something there that would question this waste of urban space. Inspired by the mixed urban-agricultural land uses I saw living and traveling in Asia, I decided to construct a landscape of rice paddies to suggest new possibilities for perceiving this space and its potential value.”
