Inukshuks On The Ottawa River

Remic Rapids, on the Ottawa River, is home to an original artistic project: the “art of balance”, by local artist John Ceprano.

Every year, John creates beautiful sculptures, placing stones one of top of the other. They are similar to the traditional Inuit symbols: the inukshuks. And every year, as the water rises and winter begins, the ice naturally dismantles the art.

Everything is perfectly balanced, and no tool is used to create the sculptures. Pretty unique, isn’t it?
