LeuWebb Projects is a part of this October’s Nuit Blanche Toronto, with our project Thermally Speaking. The independent project, realized in collaboration with Mulvey & Banani, will take over the Fort York Visitor Centre, within the Creation: Destruction zone of the festival. More details to follow…
Fabrication work is underway for our ‘Outside the Lines’ public art piece for the TTC’s Wilson Subway Station. Working with Punchclock Metalworks, the sinuous curves of the elements are taking shape.
We created a special installation for the Azure Magazine AZ Awards Gala at the Evergreen Brick Works. Incorporating found materials and working with the scale and texture of the amazing Kiln Building, the work came to life for one evening.
We recently mounted our Shine & Shimmer installation at Ontario Place for the inaugural Winter Light exhibition taking place from December 8th to March 18th. The West Island of Ontario Place will be home to 12 illuminated exhibits by 20 local artists. Woven through the fabric of the landscape, the exhibition will guide visitors through a journey of exploration all while enjoying the beautiful winter setting.
We’re excited to begin the bronze casting process for a very limited edition of our Flotsam/Jetsam Cinespheres for exhibition at Swipe Design as part of the Toronto Design Offsite Festival (TODO) in January, 2018.
We’ve created a kinetic sculpture that recalls the spirits of vanished means of production for EDIT: Expo for Design Innovation & Technology, at the former Lever Soap factory on the Don River in Toronto. Running from September 28 to October, 2017, the show seeks to provide a platform for ideas that can feed the planet sustainably, build more resilient cities, expand education access, and deliver innovative healthcare solutions to all corners of the earth.
With thanks to the Ontario Arts Council for their support of this project.
‘Flotsam Particles’, a tangent of our ‘Flotsam/Jetsam’ work for In/Future makes an appearance at the ‘Parting Lines’ group exhibition curated by Lauren Schaffer and Camille Rauton at OCAD University’s Continuing Studies gallery.
Join us June 5th for a Public Art Concept Presentation of our proposal Outside the Lines for Wilson Station on the Toronto Transit Commission’s subway system. The proposed project seeks to capture the site’s capacity for dynamic movement through bursts of colourful sculptural forms. Rather than a singular static art piece, Outside the Lines is playfully fluid. Popping out of walls, shooting through floors and coiling around columns, it flows through the sprawling station in the form of ten vibrant installations.
The fifth annual Grow Op 2017 wrapped up earlier this month, an incredible exposition of contemporary art exploring themes of landscape, ecology and design that we co-curated, taking over all 4 floors of the Gladstone Hotel. Thanks to the amazing work of the 39 participating artists who created 30 innovative projects that engaged and enlightened visitors over the course the show.
Catch up on some of the coverage in Azure Magazine, Toronto Life, GROUND, and Canadian Architect.

We made an appearance this month in the current issue of Designlines magazine.
