Bow Valley Heart
The first green of spring
In the spring of 2011, I was working a small part time job at Bow Valley Chiropractic. It is located on the +15 level of Bow Valley Square in downtown Calgary. The Square was undergoing some major renovations that just would not come to an end. It was a pretty depressing environment to be stuck in for any length of time. I decided to take matters into my own hands and with a few rolls of customized packing stickers, the Bow Valley Heart became my first indoor guerrilla installation.
With the help of my good friend Doug Haslam who played the role of my ‘supervisor’, we outwitted building security and away we went. We were even so bold as to enjoy coffee and a scone from Sidewalk Citizen Bakery while we admired our finished work. Of course, once Monday morning came around, building management had it removed immediately. Ah well --- it was the first green of spring.
