Description of Work:
Wake is a sculptural pavilion that functions as a multi-use community space in the Tait Waterfront neighbourhood.
Artist Statement:
Wake takes inspiration from both Pacific Northwest vernacular architecture and the movement of the park’s bordering Fraser River. Intersecting waves break up the traditional profile of a gable roof to create apertures that illuminate the space below. With unobstructed sight lines and a lifted, buoyant roof structure, the Wake pavilion was designed as an inspiring and inclusive public space.
