Edge
Every year at the end of May there is a festival of art in Dumfries and Galloway called Spring Fling. It celebates all types of art from every corner of the region.
We make time to spend this weekend travelling around the region looking at and enjoying as much of the art as we can, and making the odd little purchase along the way.
The one item that caught our imagination was an outdoor installation called 'Edge' on the shoreline of Carrick a few miles from Kirkcudbright.
This is the first image from the location showing the working organ on the shoreline, which gives a idea of the kind of art you will find, a few more images will be added to show some of the other items on the waters edge.
This is the press release for the installation below..
"EDGE
Let EDGE whisper to you of parted lovers, lost sailors and forgotten journeys.
EDGE is a ghost tideline that follows and entwines with the existing one at Carrick Foreshore, formed using detritus collected along the coast together with curious objects and artifacts large and small, given to, created or found by the artists. These clusters of objects form fragments of mysterious narratives and forgotten stories, some real, some imagined, some playful, others full of sadness and loss. The stories explore the nature of the link between this land and distant places and become part of the ancient tidal conversion between the sea and the shore.
The new tideline will be full of surprises, mysteries and revelations and visitors will be able to explore details of the work using the age-old skills of beach combing."
Edge is the work of artists Robbie Coleman and Jo Hodges

The building “The Edge” is an eleven-storey glass prism. An office building with a dynamic expression. Its continuous glass facade interplays between transparent, translucent and opaque. A true signature building in its neighborhood.

"Ideas emerge from edges and shadows to arrive in the light, and though that's where they may be seen by others, that's not where they're born."

With Nelson's Monument, seen on a misty November morning. Looking very different from a visit during the summer!

The irresponsible stupidity of some people never ceases to amaze me.
There are frequent cliff falls here at Birling Gap, and yet people still go to the very edge and look over. I couldn't believe it when I saw this family with 2 young children walk to the edge, although they did take hold of their hands before they got there. Plus it was blowing a gale and a small child could easily get blown over.
Edge of the Strzelecki desert. Great to travel thru the outback after heavy rains over the last year. 80km west of Windorah QLD
Another "along the path" attraction. Another plant I have no ID for. Another thing that took my breath away.

Another clear sky sunrise. But I thought, if I miss this one, I'd miss the valley filled with mist, especially after yesterday's rain.
This was one of the last shots of the morning. A composition I've never noticed before.
The midges were awful.
