wee hooses

Just about to head back down to the ponds after a few days away from the art coal face! A couple of weeks ago I spent a really valuable few days experimenting with materials, making a silicon mould and casting hundreds of tiny wax houses. A good day was also spent towing clumps of weed around / attacking Julia’s trees (thankfully under the guidance of an ex-forester). Both allowed a clear view right up the long pond on which I’m working.
Was great to find that when the houses are suspended above the surface of the water, you can see a carpet of red from the other end of the pond. Not sure how the changing water levels will sit with my piece, but that’s one of the challenges of a new, outdoor environment… Also thought the next door farmers were about to bury the railway hut in a mound of plastic-wrapped hay, but all is well…!
