Sculpture Forest: Haliburton, Ontario, Canada

The Sculpture Forest in Haliburton Ontario is one of variety and surprise. Each sculpture features the work of a different artist. Located in Glebe Park, on the edge of Haliburton village, the Sculpture Forest shares the Park with the Haliburton Highlands Museum, Fleming College's Haliburton School of the Arts, Haliburton Nordic Trails and Haliburton Highlands Mountain Bike Trails. The natural landscape takes on new forms as one walks through a sculture forest / sculture garden. The natural forest elements start to look like scultures as well, as the created forms play tricks with your mind. One can see new beauty in nature when it is juxtaposed with art, and the distinction blurs as nature itself becomes the art.
