Arts & Culture
Freedom Cove is an artificial island in Cypress Bay near Clayoquot Sound on the coast of British Columbia, Canada, created by artists Wayne Adams and Catherine King as a floating home-and-studio complex built from recycled fish-farming structures. Work began in the summer of 1991 and has continued ever since. Instead of a single platform, it consists of about a dozen connected sections supporting greenhouses, an art gallery, an art studio, and a dance floor. Its importance lies in its ongoing handmade growth as both a place to live and work and an unusual example of small-scale, self-built floating architecture.
