Description
I took this photo at Jacques-Cartier Park (Which is in Gatineau, Quebec a 5 minute drive from my place) which hosts the biggest horticultural event in Canada, with MOSAÏCANADA 150/Gatineau 2017. This was a part of the 150th anniversary of the Canadian Confederation (Canada's Birthday). Mosaiculture is a most spectacular horticultural technique that combines the following different art forms:
1. Sculpture for the structure,
2. Paint for the palette of colours, and
3. horticulture as the means of creating living and changing artworks with plants.
The theme of the Gatineau exhibit will reflect 150 years of history, values, culture and arts in Canada, represented by some 40 different arrangements.
I absolutely LOVED the green ducks above the purple flowers.
