Lake Ontario Shore, Humber Bay Park March 2002: crayon drawing |

At Humber Bay Park West, careful civic design permits urban processes such as the dumping of construction landfill and the filtration of stormwater to come together in a park that combines intensive and growing human use with wildlife habitat recovery. Giant driftwood logs are a permanent feature of the Great Lakes shoreline. By recording the presence of wildlife in drawings, writing and, most visibly, in low-relief carvings on one of the beach logs, I could document the effects of one attempt to "repopulate" the shoreline: traditionally such an important site for human and animal activity. |
