Quote:A spiralling labyrinth and a sculpture of a gnarled tree will be at the centre of a new survivor garden being built this year in Victoria Park.
At the heart of the garden will be a spiralling labyrinth with a piece of public art at its centre. The art will be mounted on a piece of granite. The sponsors hope to commission a local artist for the piece, which they'd like to be based on the idea of a rugged old tree that survives in a tough environment, such as a cliff face.
The area is meant for quiet contemplation. The spiral, a design that often seen in natural forms like shells, ferns and whirlpools, "represents the journey to our centre and back out again into the world," according to a design statement.
Other features include trellises, harvest tables, bird houses, a free library, Adirondack chairs and benches.
Is this still in the plans?
