Here thoughts on the installation for the “Art in the Garden”2013 to be installed in the plunge pool at the Rococo Garden.
Reflection and water are an important part of it,as is taking the stone down to its molecular structure.
Cotswold stone is 200million years old and is a oolite (egg stone).
As I am hoping to work with marble as it is durable outdoors. I might change the planed forms of the carving,going to research that one.
