About the Item

This contemporary metal garden sculpture is made in the form of a white swan. Jyhling Lee’s beautiful artwork is inspired by the rich traditions and iconic imagery of her culture. As a young child, Lee was taught the ancient art of origami or paper-folding. The precise skills she learned in crafting handmade forms have been translated to her elegant metal sculptural work. This monumental sculpture is designed to stir the imagination, enrich the landscape, and ‘enhance human experience.’ The swan is forged from aluminum and painted a bright white. The swan is part of her ongoing Origami series and "—an object of contemplation that subtly bridges the personal and the universal, suggesting how familiar forms can carry layered meaning across time, culture and place.” “There is a quiet joy in encountering a swan in the landscape—an experience that often feels both rare and familiar. With its poised stillness and refined geometry, the white swan inhabits the landscape as both figure and presence. Its form carries gentle associations: with grace, transformation, and the ephemeral made lasting. A familiar figure in the waterways of Prince Edward County and beyond, the white swan drifts between fairy tales and migration routes, sacred stories and everyday sightings.” Jyhling Lee Jyhling Lee was born in Taiwan and is an accomplished architect, educator and artist. She acquired a Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Studies and a Master's in Architecture from Waterloo University. Lee is currently a contract lecturer at the School of Interior Design at Toronto Metropolitan University. Her studio, ‘figureground’, is based in both Toronto and Prince Edward County, Ontario. Several of her large-scale outdoor art projects can be found in various locations in Toronto, Winnipeg and Saskatoon.

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...
