Commissioned by the City of Kingston, The Wilds of Kingston consist of two bronze figures that appear to be citizens leisurely going about their day; however, upon inspection the figures reveal themselves to be extraordinary characters with the heads of a pigeon and a squirrel. Humorously referencing cartoon clichés, this installation invites a thoughtful reflection on our relationship to nature and the urban environment.
