"Wildlife in the Heart of the City" – Georgia and Bute Streets, Vancouver, British Columbia

"Wildlife in the Heart of the City" – Georgia and Bute Streets, Vancouver, British Columbia
"Art Under Foot" is a mosaic project which was begun in 2005 by the Downtown Vancouver Business Improvement Association. The Mosaic Art Tile Project has embedded 18 colourful mosaics into the sidewalks of downtown Vancouver. This mosaic depicts a number of different animals which could be found in the environs, including an eagle, beaver and seal.

This particular artwork is one of four commissioned as part of the 'cultural olympiad" which took place in Vancouver as part of the 2010 Winter Olympics.

Artist Bruce Walther also works in stained glass. On these street projects he is often assisted by art students and other artists through a program called CETA (Creating Employment Through Art).
