Vid Ingelevics & Ryan Walker
GreenworkMay 1, 2023–Apr 1, 2024Since 2019, Toronto-based artists Vid Ingelevics and Ryan Walker have photographically documented the Port Lands Flood Protection Project, one of the most ambitious civil works programs in North America. Presented along Toronto’s Villiers Street median, this series of images—the fourth in their ongoing documentation—focuses on the social nature of labour and the greening process, as well as the juxtaposition between manual labour and heavy machinery.
