The Art Farm in Marquette, Nebraska yielded many good things. Dominique made a quilt in the first day, and I managed to squeeze two installations into a week.
Here are a few images, click to go to their respective galleries. I made a circle for Ayako, and a gemstone for the rest of the world. The gemstone marks a little bit of a new direction for us, mixing in a little Andy Goldsworthy sunflower petals to create a glow around the gemstone. Andy Goldsworthy, however, wouldn’t have gone to the flower shop in a desperate attempt to squeeze some more color into the installation, nor would he have brought a foreign man-made material into the environment for a sculpture like this.
Such an exquisite work surrounding exqusite Dominique!
This sculpture took me by surprise, but it shouldn’t have - Tex always comes up with a different variation. I love the stained glass effect the yellow flowers create.
Hey kids Hope you are having fun
Hope your headed our way !
the flowers add a fantastic yet subtle touch to the gemstone. that’s great that you are experimenting with the art form as the trip progresses.
Hey you two! I’m so excited that you’re doing this. The site’s awesome. For those of us who don’t know what your installations look like from the ground maybe you could include shots of that too?
Yay! Keep it going guys!
Love,
Erika
