David & Jorden Doody
October 11, 2022 to September 15, 2023
Kelowna-based artists David & Jorden Doody are known for their kaleidoscopic paintings and sculptural installations. For The Wishing Well, they have come together to create an experimental, site-specific installation that blurs the boundary between material and virtual space. Inspired by classic courtyard architecture and the post digital world, the Doody’s aim to transform and activate the Rotary Courtyard. Visitors are encouraged to sit, walk, and play on the sculpture, or even make it their own personal runway.
Presented with support from:
