Chiharu Shiota
"Für den WhiteCube der Kunsthalle Rostock kreierte Chiharu Shiota eine ortsspezifische Installation namens „Letters of Thanks“. Dafür wurden Dankesbriefe in einer lokalen, Kampagne gesammelt und zusammen mit verschickten Briefen aus Japan, Dänemark und Brasilien, wo sie diese Arbeit schon realisiert hat, in die Installation der Kunsthalle Rostock integriert. Der Realisierung dieser Arbeit ging als Impuls die Dankbarkeit der Künstlerin gegenüber ihrem persönlichen Kontext voraus. Sie überträgt ihre eigenen Erfahrungen in einen Versuch, die Menschen dazu anzuregen, Gefühle, die schwer zu formulieren sind, in Worte zu fassen. Durch die Verwendung der neuen Medien sind die Beziehungen virtuell und abstrakter geworden. Die Geschwindigkeit von SMS, WhatsApp, WeChat, Facebook, Twitter und anderer Kommunikationsmedien verhindert die Auswahl spezifischer und persönlicher Begriffe. Das Briefeschreiben soll hier Teil des Entschleunigungsprozesses der Ausstellungsteilnehmer werden. Die Empfänger der Briefe sind Gott, Familienmitglieder, Freunde, das Universum..."

You're the colour
You're the movement and the spin
Never could it stay
With me the whole day long
Fail with consequence
Lose with eloquence and smile
I'm not in this movie
I'm not in this song

A dip into the archives when a few Flickr friends met up at the Astley Green Colliery Museum (AGCM) back in May. I'd forgotten that I'd tried to capture the full size of this mammoth machine in the Engine House. This is more of a 180 degree image than a panorama as I'm more or less stood between the two cylinder stroke guides (extreme left and right of image). The image is a horizontal three frame panorama stitched together in Elements Photomerge with a 3.4:1 ratio crop... couldn't manage a whole number ratio this time!
A few facts on the winding engines...
The winding duty for the Number 1 shaft required the installation of one of the largest steam winding engines used in Britain. It was manufactured by Yates and Thom of Blackburn and installed between 1910 and 1912. It has four cylinders in twin tandem compound arrangement which developed nearly 2.5 Mega Watts at 58 rpm. The rope speed was 26 metres per second when winding coal.
The Number 2 engine was also built by Yates and Thom but it was only half the size of the Number 1 engine with two cylinders in cross compound arrangement. The delivery of the engine was delayed by the first world war and it was not operational until 1919.
I don't know what this mesh of industrial metal is, but with the right light, it becomes an art installation.
This revolving Image that changes its form is projected onto a Blacked out Shop Window .It is part of " The Awakening " Event in Hulls Old Town where magical light and sound installations are on view .."The Awakening" is to Celebrate the movement from Winter to Spring and Hulls Maritime Heritage and Folklore and Mythology ..
I photographed this ghosts installation at some house in our neighborhood, then I got the idea to "move" it to the creepy woods to make it a Halloween scene :))
An installation art inside a unit in the Cattle Depot Artist Village. It played with sunlight coming in from skylight window.
Cattle Depot Artist Village
is located on 63 Ma Tau Kok Road, Ma Tau Kok, Kowloon, Hong Kong, China. The site was originally used as a slaughterhouse from 1908 to 1999. It was renovated and developed into a village for artists in 2001. It is now home to around 20 art groups. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cattle_Depot_Artist_Village)
It was my work displayed in April of 2017.
An installation display that I was volunteering at over December.

Laguna de Bay is a large lagoon located to the east of Manila. Talim island appears at the upper centre of the photo.
The lake is strangely called "Laguna Lake" among Japanese.
Installation Shalekhet – Fallen leaves 10 000 faces punched out of steel are distributed on the ground of the Memory Void, the only "voided" space of the Libeskind Building that can be entered. Israeli artist Menashe Kadishman dedicated his artwork not only to Jews killed during the Shoah, but to all victims of violence and war. Visitors are invited to walk on the faces and listen to the sounds created by the metal sheets, as they clang and rattle against one another. Other art installations exhibited permanently in the museum are by Arnold Dreyblatt, Minka Hauschild, and Via Lewandowsky
This morning we visited the Will's Memorial Building to see a 7m spherical internally lit art installation by Luke Jerram which depicted planet earth rotating, it was both impressive and beautiful to see it, as almost from space!
Technical details: Gaia features 120dpi detailed NASA imagery of the Earth’s surface. The artwork provides the opportunity to see our planet on this scale, floating in three-dimensions.

Der 102,5 ha große Neue Garten liegt im Norden Potsdams am Jungfernsee. Über das Wasser hinweg bestehen gestalterische Verbindungen zu den Gärten von Sacrow, Pfaueninsel, Glienicke und Babelsberg, wodurch er eine zentrale Rolle in der Gartenlandschaft erhält. Trotz Überformung durch Lenné hat er noch sentimentale Einzelpartien aus der Entstehungsphase vor 1800 bewahrt. Seine Geschichte fängt mit dem Ankauf eines zentralen Grundstückes durch den Kronprinzen Friedrich Wilhelm (II.) an. Im Jahre 1787, ein Jahr nach dem Regierungsantritt, begann die Anlage des Neuen Gartens, der seinen Namen programmatisch in der Abkehr vom alten Barockpark Sanssouci erhielt. Als Gestalter wurde der Wörlitzer Gärtner Johann August Eyserbeck verpflichtet, was die Umsetzung der an englischen Gärten orientierten Idealvorstellung Friedrich Wilhelms garantierte. Ungünstig für den einheitlichen Charakter des Gartens war der sich über mehrere Jahre hinziehende Grundstücksankauf. Neben einbezogenen ehemaligen Wohnhäusern entstanden zwischen 1787 und 1792 wichtige neue Bauten im Garten, von denen heute noch viele bestehen: Marmorpalais, Küche in Form einer römischen Tempelruine, Gotische Bibliothek, Schindelhaus, Orangerie, Grotte, Meierei, Pyramide (Eiskeller) und das holländische Etablissement. Vor letzterem verläuft, begleitet von Pyramidenpappeln (seit 1864 Pyramideneichen), ein Musterstück für den preußischen Chausseebau. In der Gartenanlage entstand eine Fülle von Partien unterschiedlicher sentimentaler Prägung, die von den jeweiligen Bauten oder Pflanzungen in ihrem Charakter bestimmt werden. 1816 überarbeitete Peter Joseph Lenné im Auftrag des Thronfolgers den zugewachsenen und unmodern gewordenen Garten. Unter Erhalt vieler Bereiche und Entfernung zu dichter Gehölze bekam der Neue Garten große Sichten und Wiesenräume, gefälligere Wegeführung und vor allem die Blickverbindungen zu den Nachbargärten (Sacrow, Pfaueninsel, Glienicke, Babelsberg, Potsdam, Pfingstberg). Trotz kleinerer Veränderungen zur Kaiserzeit und durch Rücknahme von Einbauten aus der Zeit der russischen Nutzung (1945–1954) hat sich noch immer die von Lenné geplante Grundstruktur bewahrt. Das Schloss Cecilienhof, 1913–1917 für den Kronprinzen erbaut, fügt sich sehr harmonisch ein. Eine 13 ha große Fläche, die 1960-1990 als Grenzgebiet zerstört war, ist inzwischen wieder hergestellt worden.

The New Garden, which covers 102.5 hectares, lies at Jungfernsee Lake in the northern part of Potsdam. Creative viewing connections extend across the water to the gardens of Sacrow, Peacock Island, Glienicke and Babelsberg, evidencing the park’s central role in this overall garden landscape. Despite its having been reshaped by Lenné, the garden has nevertheless preserved individual, emotive areas that date from the phase of its creation before 1800. The garden’s history begins with the purchase of a central piece of land by Crown Prince Frederick William (II). In 1787, a year after his ascension to the throne, the laying out of the grounds commenced at the New Garden, the name being programmatic for the abandonment of the old baroque park at Sanssouci. Wörlitz gardener Johann August Eyserbeck was charged with its creation, a decision that ensured a transformation in alignment with Frederick William’s ideals oriented towards English gardens.
What undermined the uniform character of the garden was the fact that it had taken several years to purchase the land. In addition to the former private houses that were included, important new buildings were constructed in the garden between 1787 and 1792, many of which still exist today: the Marble House, the kitchen in the shape of a Roman temple ruins, the Gothic Library, Shingle House, orangery, grotto, dairy, pyramid (ice house) and the Dutch houses. In front of the latter, we find a prime example of Prussian country road construction lined with pyramid-shaped cottonwood poplars (now, since 1864, pyramid-shaped oaks). On the garden grounds, a number of areas were created, whose characters were emotively shaped by the respective buildings or plantings to varying degrees.
In 1816, Peter Joseph Lenné was commissioned by the successor to the throne to rework the overgrown garden, which no longer conformed with the contemporary taste. By preserving many areas while removing copses that had become too dense, the New Garden was provided with new perspectives and meadow spaces, more pleasing pathways and above all, with viewing connections to the neighboring gardens (Sacrow, Peacock Island, Glienicke, Babelsberg, Potsdam, Pfingstberg Hill). Despite the smaller changes made during Imperial times and owing to the removal of installations dating from the time the garden was used by the Russians (1945 –1954), Lenné’s basic structural design has been retained up to this day. Cecilienhof Country House, built for the Crown Prince from 1913 to 1917, harmonizes in this setting. In the meantime, an area of 13 hectares has been restored, which had been destroyed during its use as part of the border zone from 1960 to 1990.
The white structure on the hilltop is one of many Peace Pagodas constructed by Myouhouji Temple of Japan (日本山妙法寺). They have a talent to find prime locations in respective tourism areas. This is a southward view from Pokhara Lakeside.
View of Himalayas from the pagoda is great although it is overshadowed by Sarangkot on the opposite side of the lake.
