The tiny camera's tiny battery ran out so I went back to my reading. The note with the sculpture says "This bronze and copper sculpture contrasts a series of small human forms with the architectural weight of on oversize staircase. The artwork has a philosophical aspect by reflecting on the effect of reading on the spirit - 'the more I read the smaller I feel'." Crikey, I dunno about you but if reading made me feel like that I'd stop.
"To muse, to creep, to halt at will, to gaze ... such sweet wayfaring"
William Wordsworth
It is strange. It does not seem delapidated. Just a building made from old materials. Is that a Rheem system they have the guttering sort of slanting down to? Wierd ...
ReplyDeleteInteresting - that's what we do here, too. Collecting the rain water from the gutters in barrels and use this water mostly for watering garden plants.
ReplyDeleteOh, now I'm envious. I really, really wanted to make a rainwater retention system for our house in St. Louis. But then we moved and that dream was left behind.
ReplyDeleteIt's not rainwater harvesting that is unusual ... every rural property would do this for the drinking water in their home. What I don't get is the collection tank (which looks like an old hot water system) or the tin can type funnel at the top.
ReplyDeleteNot sure about it being a house either Julie but there looked like a backyard dunny nearby which could make it a house. However, there were the remains of an old dwelling (brick chimney) nearby also so it could have been the shed.
