From Sep 30, 2023 to Nov 15, 2023 I participated in the Terrain Biennale which is an outdoor art installation. I showed my piece “Trail” which is a 20 foot long arm-knitted lace installation that extended from my porch drooping onto the ground. To learn more about this outdoor art installation- keep reading!

Here is what Terrain Biennale says about the exhibition/outdoor art installations: Terrain Biennial is a grassroots public art festival that brings artists and neighbors together to put public art on the front lawns (and porches, windows, and rooftops, too!) of neighborhoods across the world.
Artists and curators collaborated with hosts to produce public art installations (think sculptures, paintings, projections, flags, yarn art, you name it!) outside their homes (and other unexpected spots!).

How to Participate in the Outdoor Art Installation of Terrain Biennale:
Make sure you apply. I suggest following them on Instagram to stay connected and know when you should apply. Then you need to find a host to agree to have your art installed. Then you install your art and take a photo of it so it can be added on the Terrain Biennale website. When choosing a piece to apply with you want to think about a piece that will be able to withstand weather conditions for a month and a half.
I chose to submit the piece “Trail” because I knew that it could withstand rain and even snow. Yes, sometimes it snows in Canada early! I also like the way that it drapes like a long lace curtain. I am thinking about making this piece longer. Should I? Let me know in the comments!
