We woke to an unusual alarm the next morning. Some of the cows in the next paddock crying, crying from the early hours. The poor things, it was weaning time, the neighbour said their calves had been taken the previous day.
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.
What a sad photo - but it's really beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI have never lived near cows before to know about these things. I agree the misty morning captured her sad cries well.
