A project of Inter Arts Matrix

Sandhills Park is a common land feature in this region. More sand hills in Doon. 

Places for cleaning water. 

The sand in the Hole was soft to lie on. Conforming and holding the body. Dandelions and grasses bordering the top edges, leaves being backlit offering their form and glow. Around the Hole, along the nearby cement pad were anthill holes, with busy ants. I wonder how deep they went.

I enjoyed the colours of the soil layers and wanted to present a view from the Hole. Clouds, trees and the bordering growth of grasses, dandelions and other “weeds”. For every hole there is the soil pile, even for the ants, that changed with rain, footsteps and the curiosity of visitors.

A place for individuals, birds, animals, clumps of grass and many walnut trees. I saw rabbits, robins, ants and watched many people eating from the mulberry tree while talking on there cell phone.

Thank you to Inter Art Matrix for choosing me to be in this project. I recognize the funding received by Inter Arts Matrix from the Canada Council for the Arts, the Ontario Arts Council, Region of Waterloo Arts Fund and the Waterloo Region Community Foundation.
