This architect-sculptor duo are bringing colourful, interactive urban art projects to the GTA

The intersection of Yonge Street and Lawrence Avenue seems perpetually busy. Subway stops on two corners, a branch of the Toronto Public Library on another, honking horns and multiple mid-rise apartment buildings within spitting distance – it’s hard to command the attention of the passerby.
