About the Item
This elegant abstract sculpture is by Toronto artists, Ann Bartok and Olena Kassian. Finely coiled ribbons of stainless-steel sit atop a large cylinder reflecting the sunlight. Friends and collaborators since they first met in 2012, Bartok and Kassian are now known as Barkas. Together, they are inspired to create unique large-scale pieces from recycled materials.
“JUST BREATHE combines the cool calm of the stainless-steel post and the gentle movement of the coiled plumes which suggest exhalation. It tells us to look, relax and breathe.” Olena and Ann
Born in England in 1941, Ann Bartok studied art and worked as an artist before emigrating to Canada and establishing a studio in Toronto. As a multimedia artist, she received large commercial commissions in both North and South America. Olena Kassian was born in Munich in a displaced person camp in 1947. She was just a child when she came to Canada. In later years, she became a successful illustrator publishing 16 children’s books. After retirement, she returned to make art full time.

Geyser - tall, contemporary, abstract, stainless steel, outdoor, sculpture
Located in Bloomfield, ON
Quebec sculptor Bernard Hamel often looks to nature as a source of inspiration for his contemporary sculptures. Geyser emulates the fluid form of a spout of water erupting from the ground and shooting skyward. Forged from fine individual rods of stainless steel, this elegant and dynamic shape suggests turbulent motion. Geysers are a rare natural phenomenon. Hamel prefers to work in a variety of materials including wood and metals, often incorporating the sculpture into a natural environment.
“My sculptural approach is essentially based on a direct relationship with the material….The material directs my gestures, determines my choices and the tools allow me, with their singularity, to model these shapes. Memories meet material to transform into a sculptural form with organic lines.” Bernard Hamel
Bernard Hamel was born in Quebec and lives and works in St. Roch des Aulnaies. He completed a bachelor’s degree in visual arts at UQAM with a focus on sculpture. To perfect his knowledge of wood he completed a course in cabinetmaking at the Institut québécois d’ébénisterie, in Quebec.
In 2005, he took a woodturning course with Jean-François Escoulen and André Martel, two internationally renowned turners. Since 1999, Hamel has taught sculpture at the Maison des Métiers d’Art de Québec. He has had numerous solo and group exhibitions in Quebec and participated in international symposia including the Camille Claudel Sculpture...

Bewitched - tall, modern, abstract, contemporary, aluminum outdoor sculpture
By Stephane Langlois
Located in Bloomfield, ON
Two organic shapes rise from the ground and reach for the sky in this finely crafted aluminum sculpture by Stephane Langlois. The abstract forms evoke the idea of two humans engaged in a dance, perhaps two birds, moving in response to one another. These sculptures are lively in the sunlight, moody in the evening light. They work well in sunny climates, and are also outstanding against the winter snow and light.
Individual dimensions: pictured here, the left piece is 91 x 20 x 18 inches. The right piece is 91 x 19 x 21 inches.
Stephane Langlois completed a bachelor's degree in psychology, in 2002, and a D.E.C in sculpture at the Maison des métiers d'art in Quebec City...
