Wooden forms were used in the construction of the Delaware Aqueduct to shape the concrete lining of the tunnel as it was poured. This wooden form was used to mold the gooseneck shape that connected the Rondout Reservoir effluent chamber (water leaving the reservoir), to the connecting tunnel which led to the first shaft of the Delaware Aqueduct. September 1941.

This visual blog presents images and projects related to the WATERSHED+ art program. WATERSHED+ is a public art program hosted by City of Calgary's department of Utilities and Environment Protection.
WATERSHED+ aims to develop awareness and pleasure in the environment, not by changing water management practice, nor developing a uniform visual language, but rather by creating a climate of opportunity for water initiatives to build an emotional connection between people and the watershed.
WATERSHED+ presents a unique approach to public art by embedding artists and artistic practices within UEP core activities, participating as members on infrastructure design teams, contributing to project design, development of events, community education, etc.

You can visit us at: watershedplus.ca

This program was devised by Sans façon (Charles Blanc & Tristan Surtees) with a team composed of Matt Baker, Emlyn Firth, Yan Olivares of Yes Architectes, Eric Laurier and Bert van Duin.
