How Did the Couch Monster Come to Be?

Monumental public art has made Dundas and McCall Streets a Canadian landmark, and this Couch Monster sculpture reaffirms this meeting point of the international art world. Jungen was inspired by the story of Jumbo, a captive circus elephant killed by a train in St. Thomas, Ontario in 1885. In a poetic tribute to the plight of animals in captivity, Jungen crafted second-hand leather furniture into the shape of an elephant, based on discarded furniture he saw piled up on Toronto sidewalks. Completing the piece in bronze is a tribute to British sculptor Henry Moore, and also a material interest in how bronze can, over time, come to resemble leather.
