GROVE OF LIGHT
Heavy leveraged its well-established fabrication skillset to construct these 20 feet tall structures, Grove of Light.
Our Approach
Heavy was approached by Edmonton Valley Zoo early in the design to come up with this striking sculpture in partnership with Haddad Drugan, a public artist duo from Seattle, Washington.
The Opportunity
Grove of Light was created by welding several stainless-steel plates into different orientations then applying three different types of finishes; orbital, semi-mirrored and mirrored, to detail them. These finishes give this project a three-dimensional breadth when looked at, having some angles reflect light while others are matted.
The uniqueness plays of this 360-degree reflection orientation as zoo goers can witness its beauty from all angles as its appearance and reflection changes as you change your position.
The beautiful and nearly indestructible pieces were fabricated while maintaining the aesthetic ambitions and budget cap.
