Our artwork by the same name takes inspiration from this moment of dynamic energy whereby water is released quickly through a hose, bringing it to instant life. Like a series of crazy dancing figures, the artwork transforms the energy and animation of flowing water into that of light, illuminating a public walkway along the southern edge of the new fire hall that links the community to the new fire department and to a public park access beyond. The work proposed for the newly imagined Fire Station #5 entitled: Charged Line combines historic and recognizable Calgary firefighting elements (recycled historic brass hose couplings from the Calgary Fire Departments stores) with contemporary technology (LED lighting) in a dynamic and animated series of forms that illuminate both physically and symbolically the distinct identity of the fire department and its ongoing connection to the community.
