Among glass towers and concrete sidewalks, a pyramid rises—surreal sculptures appearing in the heart of downtown Toronto.
Pyramid Fields by Cyril Lancelin brings two geometric installations to the urban landscape.
Drawing on the pyramid’s long-standing symbolism of stability and balance, the work reimagines the form as soft, temporary, and immersive—inviting audiences to step inside these storey-high grid inspired structures. The installations are positioned next to the modernist lines of the TD Centre, designed by Mies van der Rohe, and Eberhardt Zeidler's CF Toronto Eaton Centre, creating a striking contrast between the brilliantly coloured pyramids and the surrounding dark steel-and-glass architecture.
By day, they feel maze-like and playful; by night, they glow as illuminated beacons. Whether on the way to work, during a lunch break, or between errands, visitors are invited to pause and explore these towering forms. Part architectural marvel, part playground,
Pyramid Fields
encourages audiences to slow down, look up, and discover a moment of calm within the whimsical curves.
