Playing Tiger, Sittin' Dragon

 Large, vaguely human form, painted with a mural depicting a chicken, dragon, tiger and pig.

Location: Gristmill Lane, Distillery District
Date photo taken: 7 July 2022

This large, vaguely human-shaped block is one of 13 arrayed in a line down Gristmill Lane in the Distillery right now as part of 6IX Art Outdoors. Each statue provides a canvas for a Canadian artist to share something of their personal identity and their culture. This particular one features a family portrait by Yen Linh Thai, who represents her family members through their zodiac animals. The exhibit is part of the Lavazza IncluCity Festival which runs until July 17.
