If you wander into the 27 acre Sherman Campus of the Prosserman Jewish Community Centre on Bathurst, you might spot this monumental work by Kosso Eloul. It's the third of his pieces to be featured on this blog and while all are different in finish and arrangement, all are recognizable as the work of a single artist. In his own words, Eloul was "strongly prejudiced towards simplicity" and he used geometry, which was both "eternal and elemental", to explore relationships, the precariousness of life, and the search for stability.
According to Toronto Sculpture, this piece was commissioned by the Jewish Community Centre in 1978.
