Description:

The mosaic river is part of 'Coho Creek' and represents a salmon stream that may have existed at this site before asphalt and concrete covered it. The mosaic stream includes red salmon heading upstream to spawn and smaller grey and silver fish heading toward the ocean. Being an urban stream, you will notice bits of broken bottle glass along the shore and the skeleton of a salmon.

Colourful mosaic tiles set into concrete; includes documentation- the name of the work and of the artists
