Time Cone
by Brad Golden and Lynn Eichenberg, 1996.
With help from Christopher Dewdney, poet.
In front of 25 Sheppard Ave West on the SE corner of Sheppard and Beecroft.
A 15 cm stainless steel ribbon, supported by four steel beams, winds its way up to the cone at the top. Cut out of the steel are words that pertain to the geology of the area. ‘Precambrian’ is the bottom word. Other words include Pleistocene Glaciation, Gull River Limestone, Cenozic, Don, and Thorncliffe Till.
extra: In geology, ’till’ is unsorted unstratified material deposited directly by glacial ice.
