Title: Art of a different kind
Post by: elsa hoffmann on October 15, 2016, 09:23:51
Taken on tour yesterday. These are new additions and the first time I have seen them.
I am sure you recognise the stairway to heaven (and so named too)

Nice art installations. The second could be used in the advertising for Iceland Air, formerly Loftleidir (==> 'stairway to heaven').

The artist behind the last one should study Escher. An opportunity for visual tricks (blue dark birds <-> bright birds) is missed.

Elsa, very nice.  The Stairway could be really fun in a storm.  Lightning could be cool  ;) .   I spend a lot of time at the beach with my Sculptor/Installation Artist mate.  Many thanks for posting these.

I like these sculptures and how you show it
regarding Bjørn´s comment, it might be,
that depending on natural light, the one and
other effect might be done by environment?

I like how the artist have been able to harmonize the art with the landscape and how you captured that.
Great work of all artists (sculptures and photos).
