The WaterWise Demonstration Garden is a project about Xeriscape or landscape water conservation designed to utilize natural rainfall. The goal of the gardern is to encourage the Surrey residents to view water as a limited and valuable resource.
Vancouver artist Blake Williams worked with park staff to create an engaging series of ceramic-based artwork/signs that communicate the philosophy behind the model water-conservation project.
Williams contributed a large sign that identifies the garden, three smaller signs describing the concepts and elements of the garden and several smaller elements that include literary quotes and symbolic imagery. They offer information on creating gardens that are sustainable in this region and reinforce the need for environmental responsibility.
