The Wind Lift - wonderful - it works on air power |
|
A short climb to see the view |
|
What is it? How does it make you feel? Emma Hart's installation |
|
Gabriel Lester's Cross-track Observation Deck has a good view of the harbour as well as abandoned rail lines |
|
The old train station, with neon installation by Tim Etchells |
|
... also the stairs next door ... it's all drying out |
|
One of the Whithervanes ("a neurotic early worrying system") |
Nor were these all - see others at the
Folkestone Triennial site, or better yet go there and walk around and find them. The "bell on the beach" is still there, and Tracey Emin's little teddy at the railway station, and more than a dozen
artworks that have been purchased from previous triennials.
|
Each one of Mark Wallinger's "Folk Stones" represents a soldier killed on the first day of the Battle of the Somme |
Time being short at the moment, I'll leave it to you to click on the links to find out more about the works, rather than trying to say something cogent, insightful, wise, or amusing about them.
Finally, an idea for my own
in-your-dreams, purely-for-the-hell-of-it project, should anyone want to commission it for the next triennial or for anywhere really -
|
... to delineate the layers of pavement-patching with coloured outlines - or better yet, with gold leaf |
