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
I drove through Hebel once ... if we hadn't been in a hurry we'd have stopped for a look!! I'll put it on the list for next time :D
ReplyDeleteSadly there is never enough time to stop at all of the places. That is what I loved about my 100 towns project I did some years ago ... I actually stopped and looked at each of the towns, not matter how big of small. I would like to do a project like that again.
DeleteYeah, do a project like that again. Was it really "a number of years ago"? How about "A River Runs Through it" ...
ReplyDeleteStarted in October 2012 and ran a year.
DeleteOr ... knowing you two ... "100 country cafes" ...
ReplyDeleteTrying not to put on any more weight so will give that one a miss. I have thought of all sorts of ideas but nothing that I can quite settle on. Life seems so much busier at the moment.
DeleteYou need a restricted area ... a recurring theme ... that takes yer fancy ...
DeleteYeah thats a good one"A 100 country Cafes or bakeries Red would like that. I have never heard of Hebel.
ReplyDeleteMe neither.
DeleteCobb & Co staging towns ...
ReplyDeleteInter sting that you should suggest that because it is an idea I have been playing with. We were at Bathurst information centre a few weeks ago where they have a restored Cobb and Co coach. I picked up maps of the routes to see if a new project might come of it. Haven't had time to look over the maps and form a plan yet.
