A beautiful quiet path on the ground, a puzzle to solve on your lunch break tucked in between the tall towers, stone and steel, of downtown Toronto. That's what I love about it the most, the decision to put it here in the first place, the choice to nestle public art here to disrupt our pathways and challenge us to think about spirals and about what's hidden in the middle.

Near the northernmost entrance to the Market 63 shop, which is actually on the second floor of this building, it's to the left when you're facing it. Just to the right of the escalator.

As the subway worms its way out of its dark hole-- between Dundas West station and Keele station-- you can see the backs of the buildings that line Bloor Street, which would normally be a bland testimony to...Toronto-ness. But NO! COLOUR ABOUNDS! Graffiti all the way...GOOD graffiti, enjoyable to all (because I watch you all looking at it on the subway, it grabs your eye, don't deny it you there mister-man-with-the-briefcase). It's cool too because it changes all the time, and on your next ride on the train it'll be something slightly different. Whether you believe it to be art or not, it's something to be seen. (Disclaimer: I am not promoting going down back alleyways by yourself....unless you're into that sort of thing. But maybe bring a buddy if you're going to check it out off the rails. I've added many many pictures for those who want a peek.)

This weekend I grabbed my camera, my friend Amanda and a $5 Goodwill wedding dress and started shooting. My inspiration? The beautiful eclectic city of Toronto. I loved the idea of shooting against a these colourful works of arts with such a vintage classic dress. The best part about these walls is they are always changing. It's like Christmas morning everything my subway car peaks out from Keele station!

Maybe it's the year of the Tiger...?" Nope. Turns out this tiger guards not only Chritie Pits park but also Koreatown, and in Korea the tiger represents all kinds of sacred things. I am learning this from Wikipedia, so hopefully someone can one day further school me on Korean cat mythology. Regardless of it's meaning, this lit-up photo op is a neighbourhood favourite.

The facilities are quite clean and there are at least 6 private washroom stalls complete with sink, decorative gilded mirror, and similarly gilded lighting features. The doors to each of the stalls is very tall and gives you the sense of utmost privacy as you do your business. There are also nice thick folded paper towels should you require those rather than using hand dryers provided. There is a private family lounge area for breastfeeding. A central sink is located in the common area between the stalls in the event that all of the stalls are occupied and you only need to wash your hands. But with such nicely appointed stalls, it is probably worth checking out the facilities even if you don't need to use them!
