Design:
The Interconnections series celebrates the relationship between Canada’s three natural realms: land, sky, and sea. This first release, dedicated to “Land,” adopts a beaver as its central motif while ingeniously incorporating Canada’s four seasons. This central motif is framed within a wreath of six maple leaves. The iconic importance of the maple leaf to Canada is well known, but this image also points specifically to the season of autumn, when maple leaves are at their most colourful. Arranged in a six-point pattern, the leaves also become a winter snowflake. Nestled between the leaves are six stylized raindrops, celebrating spring. Finally, rays of sunlight emanate from the image, symbolizing summer. Like the seasons themselves, each element of the design blends into the next. The design’s hologram treatment augments this sense of connection and transition.
