The Design:
Designed by renowned Canadian artist and muralist Tim Barnard, the work, Canada Through the Eyes of Tim Barnard, is a unique compilation of over 50 distinct images, all symbolizing a dynamic mix of various aspects of Canadiana. The subject matter ranges from common Canadian iconography to images from Canadian history and portraits of historical figures; views of First Nations culture, art and mythology; Canadian flora and fauna; even depictions of people bundled up against a frigid Canadian winter. At the heart of this piece is an image of a rough Yukon riverbank, a location significant to Barnard himself.
