Winter Station installations open on Woodbine Beach
WINTER STATIONS ARTWORK — The fifth season of Toronto’s Winter Stations has opened on Woodbine Beach. Pictured is Above the Wall, which has been characterized as a reflection on the barriers to migration being raised in today’s geopolitical climate and how to transcend them, reads a statement from the Boston design team who created this Winter Station.

TORONTO — The fifth season of Toronto’s Winter Stations has opened on Woodbine Beach, with six temporary art installations selected as best representing the 2019 theme of migrations.

The exhibition will run until April 1.

The 2019 winners are The Forest of Butterflies, by Luis Enrique Hernandez of Xalapa, Mexico; Cavalcade, by John Nguyen, Victor Perez-Amado, Anton Skorishchenko, Abubaker Bajaman and Stephen Seungwon Baik of Toronto; Above the Wall, by Joshua Carel and Adelle York of Boston; Mind Station, by Tomas Piotrowski and Lukasz Chaberka, of Warsaw, Poland; Ground2, a student installation from from Humber College, and Intuit, also a student creation, from Sheridan College.

“It brings our team immense pride that Winter Stations is heading into its fifth year,” said Winter Stations co-founder Roland Rom Colthoff, of RAW Design, in a statement.

“It’s a testament to the appetite for design in this city, as well as to the efforts of our sponsors who step up each year to fund the exhibition. We wanted this year’s theme to continue exploring global events while bringing design and spectacle to the water’s edge. Winter Stations has always been about bringing joy, warmth and conversation to the long, cold Canadian winter landscape.”
