ConNextions: An Echo of Oakville by Ignazio Colt Nicastro - Self Guided

Accès

À propos

Enjoy temporary public art installations in Oakville parks that feature local emerging and professional artists with strong connections to Oakville. An Echo of Oakville is a multi-disciplinary installation that includes both physical and digital elements. The sculpture made from mirror shards fosters a space of self-reflection, compelling viewers to think more deeply about themselves and the spaces that surround them, specifically Oakville.

Alongside the sculpture, there are two AR sculptures painted in virtual reality located on each side of the tennis courts at Glen Abbey Park. This was done with assistance from Luigi Cody Nicastro. These pieces display the hidden histories of Oakville.

This sculpture was co-created with contributions received from community members sharing key words, places and feelings about Oakville. Those words were used to create one unified sculpture to capture these sentiments.

Nicastro is an emerging multi-disciplinary artist, curator, and writer based in Oakville.
