Terry Fox Award – Vancouver 2010
October 5th, 2010
Design: Greg Durrell, Ben Hulse and James Lee
Client: VANOC
Date: 2010
“Given to an athlete who embodied Terry’s characteristics of determination and humility in the face of adversity. The brief called for two awards, one to be given to the winning athlete and the second to the Terry Fox Museum in Vancouver, BC.
On the back of the museum award, the route Terry ran was stained into the wood, while on back of the athlete award, the remainder of the planned route (Thunder Bay, ON to Stanley Park in Vancouver, BC). When the two awards are combined they complete Fox’s journey.
The award was made out of a combination of Western Yew wood and nickle. The award was designed in collaboration with Ben Hulse and James Lee.
