Arbutus Greenway — Rainbow Rocks

The Greenway, now steadily emerging from derelict railroad tracks, has it’s first Vancouver Biennale art installation:  “Rainbow Rocks On the Greenway”.   It’s temporary, like this version of the Greenway.  Designed by Grade 2 students, the 800 or so coloured rocks have messages written underneath them — for that welcome element of interactivity.
Click any photo for a large slide show of them all. 

Here “Rocks” is a noun, and not a verb.  Although the whole installation definitely rocks. The kids really get it, too.  A few rocks are message-side up, and one (see photo) says “False Creek to Fraser River”.
