The turtle appears in art as well as in popular culture and has different symbolism in different parts of the world. In the Amerindian culture, the turtle is at the origin of the creation of the Earth: stories abound where the turtle holds a cosmogonic role, contributing with its wisdom to build the world. A symbol of perseverance and courage, it carries the world on its back and is a guarantee of stability.

By its physical characteristics and behavior, the turtle represents the calm of evolution, a quiet and continuous progression. In this sense, the choice of this emblematic animal fits perfectly with the objectives of both an educational institution and a sports complex. Like the fable of the hare and the tortoise, it evokes a deserved success after hard work.

Meet the Creator
Wescover creator since 2020
Our visual language is characterized by the use of recognizable forms, bright colours, a playful use of scale, and improbable encounters.

We are an artist duo named Cooke-Sasseville. Working together since 2000, we have presented our work at numerous solo exhibitions and have participated to significant collective events in Canada, USA, Europe and Mexico, producing an impressive corpus of sculptural and installation work. Throughout our career in visual arts, we have always developed our projects in relation to the sites where they will be installed. The creation of public art projects is thus directly in line with our artistic approach. Over the years, we have created many major projects by their deployment in space and the mixed nature of the materials and techniques used. We both act as designers of our works and manage them with our various suppliers. Since 2008, we have created 28 public artworks for various Canadian municipalities, organisms and private companies. We have developed the skills required to manage large-scale projects involving many stakeholders all the while respecting the proposed deadlines and budgets. We have worked with a range of materials including aluminium, bronze, stainless steel, and concrete, and developed solid expertise in installing indoor and outdoor works. We have built and maintained a solid network of collaborators who help us realize our projects.
