Lois Hole Hospital

The Lois Hole Hospital is a unique new space, specifically designed by the architect to include works of art throughout. An art director hired in 2007 headed the committee to purchase art for the building that opened in 2010. In that time art has been commissioned and purchased and now resides within the building, including waiting rooms, nursing stations, hallways, examination rooms and patient rooms.

We toured the facility and viewed many of the works, including fibre artist Martha Cole. 

This birds nest sculpture is viewable from the maternity ward!

These hand-pottery urns are in the window well of the basement level and allows light in.
Notice the negative space between the urns.  Surprise!
