The Spirit of Kelowna project consists of 102 cast bronze medallions (one for each year of Kelowna's history since incorporation in 1905), each designed and made by Kelowna residents, expressing their own individual interpretations of community spirit led by Geert and Elly Maas.
The bronze "Destiny" sculptures, commissioned by Okanagan College, B.C. and Tachibana University in Kyoto, Japan, represent the 20 year anniversary of their cultural exchange, partnership and friendship.
Featuring silkscreens made at the Okanagan College years ago as well as images and spray paintings from Geert's time at the Academy of Studies in the Netherlands from 1967 to 1969
