Description of work
The piece can be found along the foundation of the building on the waterfront walkway between Nicola and Cardero Streets. It is made of stones, plaques, and objects cast in bronze that refer to the history of the area and act as a puzzle. Recently, the strata council has posted privacy signs in the 3 alcoves - however, the artwork is visible from the sidewalk.
Artist statement
"Make West is an attempt to represent the history of Coal Harbour and, by extension, Vancouver and Western Canada. It does so in the form of a series of shards, or extractions which constitute a game." -the artist
