Designed and created by artist Leigh Wright, Founder and Co-Producer of the Vignettes Design Series, this piece was constructed to honour the repopulation of Alberta’s bison. The Bison is made from all-natural and reclaimed materials including bark, moss, succulents, and wheat.
THANK YOU TO THE FOLLOWING LOCAL COMPANIES WHO COLLABORATED WITH US IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE BISON
