Located (2003) in the field north of the T.C. Douglas Building.
Artist: Don Foulds (Canadian , born Saskatoon, 1952) has
worked in several media, including welded steel,
carved wood and marble, metal furniture, and cast
bronze. Mshimi's Walk, assembled spontaneously
from a stack of precut steel elements, employs a
process derived from Sir Anthony Caro, the leader of
the 1977 Emma Lake Artists' Workshop. Using this
method, Foulds would allow the process to call forth
the final image. As he laid out the sculptural elements
for this work, they suggested the shuffling walk of a
Japanese woman in a kimono-an image reflected in
the sculptor's title. After working for many years
Saskatoon, Foulds now teaches at Memorial
University in Corner Brook Newfoundland.
