Come on down..

One of the images emailed to me during from installation. It was very curious watching this from a distance and I regretted not being present at the final stage. The technicians however, as usual, did a great job!
Now I await feedback and some images of the sculpture in it's new home.

If anyone would like to send some images of the art-at-work in the square - I hope to see folk sitting on them soon- or have any comments at all please post here or send them to me.

Countdown

Yesterday Aberdeenshire Council Museums services installed the archaeological display in Meldrum Library. Evelyn Munro went over to the library and sent me some images... it appears that the 12 neolithic stone balls have been arranged appropriately like a clock...particularly poignant today as I wait to hear how the installation of the larger versions goes .. kicking off at 9am this morning. While I regret I am not present - and feel a little anxious- for a number of reasons not least the uncertainty of the installation date - it was too complicated to arrange, and I do have complete confidence in the folk who are installing the work- Fyfe Glenrock technicians supported by Aberdeen Council engineers.
The three photographs have been installed in the community cafe , and the first version of the leaflet I have put together is being circulated-complete with spelling mistakes which will be banished from the next print run.
Will try and arrange a downloadable version soon.

If you read this and have any comments on the artwork or the project, please post them here.
Also interested in seeing any photos, of the installation process or the artwork in place so please send those too!
