“Listen” is not just a sculpture, it’s a dialogue. A conversation between two artists, John Hemsworth and Peter Tiesenhausen, and the city of Vancouver. The sculpture sits proudly in Stanley Park, a monument to the city’s spirit and its connection to the natural world. Hemsworth and Tiesenhausen, inspired by the park’s serene beauty, imagined a sculpture of a man listening intently to the whispers of the wind. The figure, rendered in stainless steel, is a reminder of the power and beauty of nature. “Listen” is more than just a sculpture; it’s an invitation to embrace the tranquility of the environment around you. Take a moment to sit on the bench facing the sculpture, close your eyes, and listen to the gentle rustling of leaves and the waves crashing on the shore. For a few fleeting moments, leave behind the noise of the city and simply listen to the quiet symphony of nature. The artists aimed to capture the inherent serenity of Stanley Park, a sanctuary in the midst of a vibrant and bustling city. “Listen” inspires us to do just that.
