This sculpture - All I Have - represents the dreamer, the hopeful and hard working. As beings we are made up of the same anatomical components however, underneath all of that we are a being of our lived experiences, backgrounds and memories. 

This tall figure, is a human with physical protrusions, symbolizing the one-of-a-kind experiences and challenges faced, that make us who we are today. This is a reminder of life's irregularities and our hope to achieve a better and brighter future.

This sculpture was funded by: 

Beginning in 2019, The Eglinton Way Business Improvement Association began to invest in Artwalk, a public art installation on our street. The goal over the next 5 years is to bring 25 of these art installations (sculptures, statures, murals) into the neighborhood. It will be a beautiful place to walk, learn, experience, shop and enjoy.
