The Wishing Bear (6.5ft x8.5ft x20ft) is a sculpture featuring a four-eared bear in pajamas with a pink bonsai tree on its head. Influenced by Zen philosophy, this sculpture is a visual representation of the natural world that stands for a peaceful and sustainable coexistence between the environment and its inhabitants. The wishing bear, with its gentle kneeling pose, evokes feelings of spirituality and devotion, representing a genuine respect for the environment as well as a desire for a better future. Through its symbolic design, “The Wishing Bear” invites visitors to build connections, share stories, and create a collective commitment to protecting the planet for future generations.

This project is a collaboration with MASSIVart commissioned by Royalmount, Montreal
