It doesn't deliver chocolate eggs, but I thought this fellow was a pretty good stand in for the Easter Bunny. It's by Quebec artist Laurence Vallières who normally creates her largely animal-inspired sculptures out of cardboard. This particular one however was created with wood and the white corrugated plastic known as coroplaste, allowing it to stand up to both the elements and to its admirers. She originally created the work for the 2019 edition of Montreal's MURAL Festival, where it sat on the street, a glowingly bright white. The pink paint job was done when it was relocated to its new home in Toronto later that summer.
