About the Item
Solid steel rods coated in brilliant brass appear to rise out of the earth and reach for the sky in this dramatic sculpture by Canadian artist, Tonya Hart.
Hart creates work that is inspired by forces of nature—light, energy and magnetism.
“As a sculptor, I am drawn to the visual animations of fluid dynamics and magnetism that explore the underlying structure of the universe. Fluid dynamics is the study of the mechanics of flow in liquid, gas and air; while magnetism is the dominant force structuring movement.” Tonya Hart
Hart received her Bachelor of Fine Arts with Honors in 1998 as a Visual Arts Major at York University in Toronto. In 2006 she attended George Brown College. She has since worked with cities across Canada including four commissions with the National Capital Commission in Ottawa, Canada to create public art installations. In 2019-20, Hart took part in a studio residency at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Toronto.

Tonya Hart
Tonya Hart is a Canadian artist currently based in Toronto. She creates art inspired by light, energy and magnetism to form a connection with the natural world. Nature and magnetism manifest in a vast array of articulations in her artwork and continue to facilitate the conceptual nature of her work. Her light-based sculptures vary in scale from intimate to monumental in an aim to pair the energy within us to the energy found within natural phenomena to discover experiences with light that offer insight and connection. In 2011, Tonya entered the public art realm with INFRA commissioned by the city of Toronto for Scotiabank Nuit Blanche, becoming the first of three exhibitions for Nuit Blanche Toronto. She has since worked with cities across Canada including four commissions with the National Capital Commission in Ottawa, Canada to create public art installations. Other notable exhibitions include the Venice Biennale of Architecture in 2018; Canadian Sculpture Centre in 2009 and group shows with 4heads arts group in New York City for Portal Art Fair in SoHo and Governor’s Island Art Fair both in 2017. In 2019-20, she took part of a studio residency at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Toronto.

- Probability Deep Blue 4 - elegant, curved, abstract, glass, wall sculptureBy John Paul RobinsonLocated in Bloomfield, ONJohn Paul Robinson creates original contemporary wall sculptures from coloured glass that are filled with light. This piece features elegant arched deep blue tubes of glass that are polished to a smooth finish and overlap one another to create a dynamic composition. The Canadian artist often explores themes related to how the world works. This is one of a series intended to represent the dual nature of light as both a particle and a wave. In physics, the wave nature of light is referred to as a "probability wave". “The thickness of the glass and curvature of the lens conspire to create their own optical effect. As your gaze moves across the piece it causes the small grains of coloured glass to shift just a bit. Starry Starry Night...Category
