Lightning on a Clear Day

Etched art in the form of lightning running down the side of a black building, on a bright sunny, blue sky day

Location: 95 The Pond Road
Date photo taken: 22 September 2018

The Quad at York is a student residence made up of a pair of U-shaped buildings. The various east and west-facing sides of the building are etched with a series of branching patterns. I was drawn to the lightning but there are others, equally beautiful. They're impressive from a distance, and even more engaging up close where you can see the shifting colours in the designs. They are the work of Montreal artist Nicolas Baier.
