Benchmark reveals 2021 installation
Reflection Station by Sophia Tang and Hans-Christian Buhl (sophie & hans) of Berlin, Germany is a new addition to the Ironwood Trail in Pinawa, Manitoba. The project is the winner of Benchmark?s international design competition organized by Storefront Manitoba and the Winnipeg Trails Association to reimagine public space along trail systems in Manitoba.

Reflection Station is made up of four stations that reflect the natural areas of the Ironwood Trail, while simultaneously revealing the many modes of movement along the trail. The stations, which function as exterior furniture and art pieces along the trail, are clad with mirror-finished stainless steel, creating a mirage effect that, at certain vantage points, disappears into its surroundings.

Reflection Station is one of two projects that were chosen as part of the international design competition, Benchmark (2020). The second site was in downtown Winnipeg. Suzy Melo, co-curator of Benchmark, said ?This is the first year that the competition was located outside of the City of Winnipeg. Reflection Station is already becoming a new destination along the Ironwood Trail, and I look forward to seeing the project transform throughout the seasons.? Both Benchmark 2020 projects were completed with the guidance of project curators, Suzy Melo (Storefront Manitoba) and Anders Swanson (The Winnipeg Trails Association).
