Public Art

Same Material/Different Time is a temporary light-based public art installation by artist Jordan Shaw.

About the Artwork

ROOTS is a community-engaged public art sculpture conceived by multidisciplinary creator and artist Mary Pan. Participating in the creative process at public forums and workshops, residents of the Pickering community worked in collaboration with the artist by contributing and assembling the objects, while the artist distilled the objects into sculptural form.

About the Series

This exhibit was commissioned by the City of Pickering. The final result is a series of images which tell the story of modern-day Pickering, with a homage to those who have settled here in 1811 to establish the great City we live in.

On The Backs of Fish is an interactive and engaging permanent public artwork that reflects on the history and ecology of our landscape and our relationship with it.

The City of Pickering is celebrating frontline workers and first responders through two new murals currently installed at Chestnut Hill Developments Recreation Complex (CHDRC). Artists connected with first-responders and sought out feedback from the community for their artworks.

The public art piece named “You Can Never Close Nature” by Artist FATSPATROL (Fathima Mohiuddin) in partnership with Mural Routes, and is located at the exterior wall of West Shore Community Centre, 1011-1015 Bayly Street, Pickering and on a couple of the concrete walls at the West Shore Skate Spot. FATSPATROL’s final design was created with the help of the West Shore community and is reflective of the neighborhood and the recreational activities that take place in this location. The mural includes themes and images of the diverse natural environment that coexist in the West Shore community.
