1929-1984 Landscape, 1973 by Walter Redinger, Oakville Galleries in Gailoch Gardens, 1306 Lakeshore Road East, Oakville, ON

Excerpt from www.oakville.ca/culturerec/public-art-and-exhibitions.html:

1929-1984 Landscape, 1973 by Walter Redinger
Fibreglass

Based in Ontario for most of his life, Walter Redinger was well known for his elemental, pod-like fibreglass sculptures. Created in 1973 (a year after Redinger represented Canada in the Venice Biennale), 1929-1984 Landscape is the first work that was commissioned for the Gairloch Gardens Sculpture Park. The title of the work alludes to the 1929 stock market crash and George Orwell’s well-known dystopian work of fiction, 1984. In framing the decades between these years, Redinger marks out an era of instability in which visions of a dystopian future were coming to pass. Vaguely anthropomorphic, the four figures in this sculptural group suggest a community, albeit one in which individual identities have been eroded by the mechanical and societal developments of a fast-changing world.
