Three of Toronto’s latest public art pieces have been unveiled at Concord CityPlace.

Variegation, Gardiner Streams and Drift are the latest pieces to be unveiled by Concord Adex, Canada’s largest residential developer. These works add to Concord Adex’s public art collection and showcase unique and inspiring work by acclaimed Canadian artists Pierre Poussin, Katharine Harvey and Adrian Göllner.
“Our investment in public art is an important part of our commitment to building vibrant and sustainable communities, bringing together elements that shape a modern, complete neighbourhood,” said Gabriel Leung, Concord Adex vice president, Development.
The unveiling will showcase Variegation, the second piece at Concord CityPlace by Canadian artist Pierre Poussin.

Variegation mimics the plants’ blooming process showing different colours of stripes and spots on the leaves and stems of plants as they grow.
