Winterlude 2010: The Urban Cozy Project : February 2010
From Spins & Needles
Inspired by urban art and craft interventions around the world, this February 2010, Spins & Needles + the National Capital Commission (NCC) will transform the Ottawa-Gatineau winter landscape with a large-scale public urban art intervention. This intervention will take place during the annual Winterlude festival, Canada’s capital region winter celebration and one of the largest winter festivals in the world.
The Winterlude Urban Cozy Project, presented by Spins & Needles, will remix warmth, cold, art, craft, music and the city. We’re inviting artists and the public from near and far to create a warm and whimsical urban environment during Winterlude in Canada’s capital city by adding various warm coverings, or cozies, wrapped around trees, lampposts, and other urban elements on festival grounds. The intervention also seeks to play with traditional images and conceptions associated with a country known around the world for it’s cold weather climate.
