Bigger and better are just two words that apply to this year's TIAR. You could also say breathtaking, a breath of fresh air and in some cases, lighter than air. The Breathing of Plants, (right) an installation by Klaus Illi & Bettina Burkle, offered billowing green stems that inhaled and exhaled making air a primary sculptural element.
The Sandra Ainsley Gallery brought us fragile glass helmets. (right)
Magic Pony Gallery at 694 Queen St. West is one of those destination shops you wish you'd 
discovered sooner. At least I did. Billed as "Designer Toys Apparel Lifestyle Books Art & More" it represents truth in advertising. The postcard flyer let me know that I'd missed four other exhibits from May through Sept this year. October's installation - Mega Mega Wibbied Mindthicket by Derrick Hodgson (above) was a visual delight in pastels.
