visualatelier8 presents DEVIATION by studiosvensauer.

From the original instagram post:

The installation stretches across the room like a carpet of glass fragments, woven from shards collected worldwide. Broken glass often feels ominous: shattered windows before earthquakes, shards from riots, or jagged borders meant to keep people out. Today, it can seem as though shards are everywhere, and humanity doesn’t always appear in the best light. Based on texts by historian Rutger Bregman, DEVIATION reveals another truth: in times of crisis, people tend to move closer together, and acts of kindness grow. Negativity may be louder, but history shows cooperation prevails. From certain angles, the processed shards catch light and divide it a hundredfold, turning fragments of destruction into reflections of hope.

Okay. Mun conspiracy here cause I honestly don't think this something Port would come up with but. The Blue Circle in Calgary is definitely a portal connected to the Ring in Montreal. Like look at these and tell me it doesn't look like it should be a portal.

Janet Cardiff

Sound artist Janet Cardiff was born in 1957 in Brussels, Ontario. Since the 1990s, Cardiff has received international recognition for audio and video "walks". These are immersive experiences where the audience watches a screen or uses a portable listening device to follow directions. In 2001, she received the Millennial Prize from the National Gallery of Canada. Cardiff's The Forty Part Motet was the first piece of contemporary art to be presented at the Met Cloisters. She has collaborated extensively with her partner, George Burres Miller. Together, they were the first Canadian artists to win the Venice Biennale Special Award. In 2020, the pair won the Wilhelm Lembruck Prize.
