Icebergs, Polar Bears, Northern Lights AND Santa Claus, a child’s winter dream come true.
For those who missed it over the Christmas season, here is a quick tour of Garden City’s new Christmas display for photos with Santa.
“Santa’s Ice City” was setup in GC’s centre court over the holiday season. This massive creation, made from EPS Foam was designed and built by Brokenhead Studio Inc. The icebergs were hand carved with an oversized hot wire cutter (also custom made by an employee of Brokenhead Studio Inc.), and the polar bears were replicated on a CNC machine. All pieces were then sprayed with a hard protective coating and hand painted.
(*note: these photos do not do the display justice, be sure to experience it for yourself next Christmas!)
Shown below is the front view that you would see coming from the food court area of Garden City Shopping Centre:
The cute baby polar bear sitting on the gifts is a mailbox where kids can drop off their letters for Santa:
moving a little further right, is the entrance to see Santa:
As you wait in line the you will actually travel within the huge icebergs…
and of course Mama Bear never strays too far from her cubs… This is the view from the back.
And then there are also the 2 baby bears that have wandered off to other areas of the mall, in order to help direct traffic toward the display
