I have just returned from a great trip south to Devon, was made very welcome by Rinus and Aniet van de Sande and all went well with the install of my piece. It was a pretty wet couple of days and windy too, so good weather to test the robustness of sculpture. The piece now has a mowed area so people can walk around it, and it situated in a lovely meadow surrounded by trees.
The patient threading of the porcelain pieces at home had paid off and all arrived safely in my suitcase, ready to hang within the perspex box, which was a 2 person job. I am looking forward to see how the piece weathers in it’s environment. I am planning to go back for a relaxing weekend soon, the Hotel is lovely and rest of gardens are a spectacular a mix of informal gardening and interesting art, well worth a visit.
