Nash at Kew

[David Humphries]

I'm all for the interaction & viewing of the natural & urban canvas from different angles, but some work & some just don't.

Look forward to seeing them

 

Londons seemingly packed with peoples little signatures.

 

Sometimes subtle & sometimes they're a tripping hazard

You just have to be keep an eye open for them.

On a related matter; a colleague did a hazard assessment the other day and felt obliged to record in the schedule that his inspection of several of the main stems of the subject trees was impeded by guerilla knitting...

So much, but my camera was full before lunch...doh! I haven't been to Kew since i was about 7 and that was at night. I made the most of the day and walked the vast majority of the site, though most things I saw fleetingly in an attempt to cram as much into the day as possible.

 

I was really pleased to see the Euc Oculus Block, one I've wanted to see for ages. I was however a little disappointed with some of the Nash stuff, though it may just be I don't have the "eye" for it. The wood quarry had a few pieces that looked a bit half baked, though I'm sure they're works in progress. The block he has for the three spoons has massive potential, I may have to return when that one is done!

 

Coincidentally, while in London I stayed with my aunt who went to Yorkshire Sculpture Park a few weeks ago and saw his 71 steps amongst other things.
