The artwork “Rainbow” draws inspiration from the site’s former life as the Quebec Zoological Garden, transforming this history into a vibrant natural canopy of 120 colourful patterns—each referencing an animal or plant. Echoing the playful spirit of children’s drawings and the cut-paper style of Matisse, the installation fosters a joyful connection between children and nature through colour and light. Suspended as a floating landscape, it infuses the school’s biophilic architectural environment with brightness, curiosity, and wonder.
