ANTHEMS TO COLOUR by Liz West

Step into Anthems to Colour, an installation that invites you to see Toronto in a brand-new light. Across three Brookfield Properties locations in downtown Toronto, British artist Liz West creates sculptural works using coloured acrylic, mirrored surfaces, and refracted light. Designed to respond to the movement of the sun, the installations shift throughout the day: grids of coloured panels glow against glass facades, mirrored elements reflect and multiply surrounding architecture, and translucent walls scatter prismatic colour into the space around them.

Featuring three new site-specific commissions:

Ascending Colour Frequency - Bay Adelaide Centre

Gridded Echo - Brookfield Place

Diffraction Tango - First Canadian Place

These are not static sculptures but responsive environments-works that use daylight as a material. As the light changes, familiar buildings and public spaces are transformed, turning marble, glass, and steel into luminous, layered, and unexpected playful experiences.
