Sean Martindale's Park in Toronto

PARK-22.jpg

From Sean Martindale in Toronto:

"For some time now, the spot in has been relatively empty aside from mud, waste and strewn garbage. There's an application to build condos on the site. It has remained undisturbed since Monday and I watered it yesterday because there hasn’t been any rain lately… Grass is pretty resilient, so it should survive and take root unless/until somebody removes it. Joe Clement assisted me with the install"

We absolutely love this project. Toronotist reports that local artists Sean Martindale and Eric Cheung are turning torn advertising posters on the street into street planters.

You can learn more on their blog here.

Edina Tokodi has installed her latest living wall portrait (made completely out of succulent plants) in Brooklyn for the recent Fort Green Garden Walk event. The piece is currently located on the rooftop of Green Spaces NY and will be moved to a public spot in a few weeks. We think it's amazing.
