The Story Behind the Artwork

Some places hold more than just history—they hold heart.

St. Lawrence Market is one of those places. With its red-brick arches, green awnings, and the scent of baked bread in the air, it’s where generations of Torontonians have gathered—early mornings, weekends, first dates, and everyday routines. It’s where the past meets the present, just steps away from the pulse of the city.

This artwork was inspired by that intersection—between memory and motion. The market stands proudly in the foreground, while the CN Tower and towering glass buildings remind us how far the city has come. From the soft foot traffic of locals to the buzz of the downtown core, every detail reflects a Toronto that’s always alive yet never forgets where it began.

Handcrafted on wood and edged in textured cement, this piece carries the warmth of familiarity—made to bring a little piece of Toronto’s heart into your home.
