I want to start a project of sunny, joyful, interesting posts for the summer of 2025. This is how I perceive everything that makes summer in Toronto bright and unforgettable. This is LUMINATO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RAINBOW DREAM<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The whole city has been filled with rainbow installations since June. In parks, squares and public places in Toronto you can see these multi-colored installations or banners inviting you to visit them.
And this has colored the business center of Toronto, its busiest places, business centers, parks near the largest and most important business centers. This has created a feeling of joy and a play of love.
But no one thought about what it means.
Well, installations, beautiful unimaginable flowers, near which a child can play or adults can take selfies, you can eat lunch during a work break or take a leisurely walk.
But this is much more than just decoration and I will begin to tell from a rainbow dream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is a collected idea, which consists of many colorful decorations. In the center of which there is a wheel, which is located in 181 Bay St W.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This circle reminds us, children who grew up in Eastern Europe, of a “squirrel in a wheel” or a drum that you spin to win a prize.
There is something of this, but on the first day of the opening, a psychologist, the founder of this installation and its organizer, told us about this installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


I was lucky enough to see it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said that the idea of \u200b\u200bthe wheel is that a person gets inside the wheel, takes the handrail with his hands, starts walking with his feet and the wheel starts spinning. You can adjust the speed from low to high enough to make the person feel comfortable and happy. It may happen that your head starts spinning and at that moment – a request, the most important thing here, is to look 15 degrees to the right of the wheel at the opposite wall of the hall, where an imitation of fire is created from glass and colored beads in the wall from the ceiling to the floor. This fire distracts a person and the person forgets about his illness and he feels normal, he comes to normal.
This is how a psychologist helps to cope with difficulties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In stress – to get out of stress, you need to quickly switch over so that the body does not get sick and gets out of discomfort.
Around this rainbow circle, bright pillows are scattered, where children and adults can take a nap, play. There is a place for relaxation and peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this days, the famous dancer HIROMI TANGO took part in RAINBOW DREAM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the one you see in the advertisement for this event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And I was pleased to see the happy faces of the people who came up to look. After all, the working day of these people is very busy and this is downtown, the busiest business place with thousands of company employees. The working side of Toronto and Ontario is created here and here in June these rainbow islands blossomed LUMINATO FESTIVAL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DREAM ORIGAMI GARDEN<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you like origami? Have you ever made origami yourself? And what if you are taught by ALEX YUE the most famous origami creator in Canada?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Now imagine a working day. Lunch break. A huge building filled with different businesses and companies.
And people come down, knowing that they have limited time for rest. They come, sit down next to them and start creating origami flowers. I have never created flowers before.
That is, not like that. I have created flowers, but origami flowers that I created under Alex’s guidance, this is the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n


It was joyful to take an absolutely clean colored piece of paper, turn it one way, turn it over, bend it and turn it the other way and in your hands a beautiful flower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And so a garden of origami flowers was created, in which there is also a part of me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And on the street in the park near our building, incredibly beautiful flowers bloomed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
