Short Format: Diane Borsato Toronto Biennial of Art Podcast
-
- Artes visuais
Diane Borsato's "ORCHARD" is a living sculpture made up of old and eccentric varietals of apple trees, planted by Borsato at the Small Arms Inspection Building – a contemporary art and cultural space of the City of Mississauga. The work expands ideas of public art and seeks to foster enduring connectedness to land, plants, food, and one another. In this podcast, Borsato describes the tastes, textures, shapes and colours of these apple “artefacts”, reflecting on the ways in which they trace histories of migration and genealogies of flavour. On September 29, 2019, Borsato performed the apple-tasting event "YOU ARE A GOOD APPLE" to launch this public art sculpture.
Short Format Series Produced by Aliya Pabani and Angela Shackel.
