Inspired by the history of the area and its natural surroundings, artist Cairn Cunnane created Our Fence to welcome visitors entering the park. Ripples of water flow along the fence, referencing nearby rivers. Majestic trees at the gate pay homage to Samuel Bingham, lumber baron and former Mayor of Ottawa, who donated the park in 1897. Playful figures in stainless steel overlap one another, creating patterns and layers that connect the many generations who have come and gone from this park.
