[edit] Recent works
Levy's recent work includes Lotic Meander, one of three projects selected by the Ontario Science Centre's Project Art.
Lotic Meander is a snakelike (described by Toronto Star as "serpentine") walkway that resembles a dried riverbed outside the Ontario Science Centre's Great Hall. The snakelike stream is 91.4 metres long, and winds along a path that takes up most of the Solar Patio, outside the Great Hall. The piece is made from 116 granite slabs from India, and 8 nearly perfect hemispherical or hemiellipsoidal black domes carved from boulders imported from China. The highly polished domes are similar, in appearance, to the domes used to house surveillance cameras.
Along some of the curves of the path there are also nicely polished smooth round glass pebbles, in variously coloured translucent glass.
