Leaning Wilds

There is one dedicated accessible parking space in the Kootenay Co-op parking lot, and one across the lot outside Nelson Remedy’s Rx on Baker Street. A wide paved entrance and alleyway in front of the Co-op provide a great view. Level access.

Mural description: Bright, angular shapes burst across the wall in this vibrant mural, evoking a sense of movement and depth. Native Kootenay flowers, glacier lily, wild rose, and western trillium, emerge from the geometric landscape, their forms stylized into bold, faceted segments of colour. Saturated hues of yellow, pink, teal, and orange stretch across the scene, lending the mural a dimensional quality that draws viewers into a fragmented, dreamlike version of the natural world. The contrast between the hard-edged abstraction and the organic subject matter suggests an imaginative reentry into the regional flora through a contemporary, almost digital lens.
