The sculpture is created with rocks from Toronto's shoreline that have not been altered or coloured in any way. The formation and colouration of these rocks result from a unique part of this land's history. Sometime in the late 1950's the Toronto Harbour Commission initiated a project to use the city's Development Industry by-products (building demolition) to build out the land and create a commercial use port, an idea that never fully realized. Now known as the Leslie Street Spit, the land re-wilded into a significant ecological zone, colourfully scattered with our past.
The sculpture Chromatica is displayed on the floor. The composition is intentional yet ambiguous and bears resemblance to a rug, a map, a blueprint, or even a landscape. As usual, the artist leaves space for multiple interpretations.
