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
Beautiful. I love this on so many levels. Shape, texture, lighting.
ReplyDeleteThanks Vicki, it was one of rare occasions on this long trip when I could do something photographic rather than just grabbing a snapshot on the run.
ReplyDeleteYears ago my father grew broom millett for the Federal Broom Co; This seed head reminds me of it.
ReplyDeleteThis is fascinating. Was it the stalk without the seeds that ended up in the broom? What happened to the seeds?
