Erin Robertson installed her piece Heavenly Blue last weekend in the field.  So far, he has received at least one wave from someone driving by thinking he was a real person standing in the field!  More about this installation to come….

Prayer Flags

The hanging of Tibetan Prayer Flags has a long history. According to an article by Timothy Clark that I found online,

 

‘The ancient Buddhist prayers, mantras and powerful symbols displayed on them produce a spiritual vibration that is activated and carried by the wind across the countryside.  All beings that are touched by the wind are uplifted and a little happier.  The silent prayers are blessings spoken on the breath of nature. Just as a drop of water can permeate the ocean, prayers dissolved in the wind extend to fill all of space.’

like a wave particles free

energy frozen releases

relieved

thaw puddles a brittle heart

mild

muffling the clarity of direction

fragments emerging

dead old and dry

memories from before

not yet dissembled to soil

winter thaw glimpses

the other side

revolution or evolution coming?

dead of winter

2 steps forward one back

a slow sidelong shuffle

towards spring
