In this new body of work, Rod Mireau explores the edges between the industrial and the natural drawing inspiration from seeds to rebar. Constructed of wood and metal, Mireau’s sculptures form a balance between the organic and the geometric while playing with gravity and scale. Mireau was born in Saskatchewan and is currently based in Peterborough. His work is held in collections across Canada and the USA, Germany, and United Arab Emirates. This is the first major solo exhibition of Mireau’s work.
