Pauline Fraser
Bronze, Red Gum and Harcourt granite sculpture, 1995
Queen Victoria Market, Therry Street (Melway ref. 2B, C12)
Pauline Fraser was born in 1953 on remote Christmas Island. She studied sculpture at Monash University and RMIT, and has exhibited her work widely in Australia. In 1994, the City of Melbourne commissioned Fraser to undertake Wind Contrivance through its Percent for Art Program. The work was sculpted in Fraser’s studio at Lurg, 20 kilometres from Benalla, and cast at the Meridian Foundry in Fitzroy.
This large bronze sculpture – featuring an array of vegetables, fish and an Aboriginal fishing net – looks whimsically to the relationship between the land and city, tradition and lifestyle, production and consumption. Like Bernice Murphy’s Dairy Hall Window, with which it was unveiled in August 1996, Wind Contrivance is sited at Queen Victoria Market, a centre point between land and city, and a cipher through which the country harvest is distributed to city dwellers.

I was in Walla Walla, Washington this weekend on Saturday just one day after this horrendous storm that swept through. Some of the damage and destruction is awful but the town began cleanup immediately after the storm left. Many were without power but was mostly restored by the following Monday.
El Jable, the most Northern point of the island of Fuerteventura, where you have the 'white' sands, dunes empty and spacey.
As this is the closest point to Africa/ Morocco/ the Sahara, sometimes they have sandstorms that come from the Continent and feed those beautiful Dunes. I just love patterns in the sand created by wind...
Thanx, M, (*_*)
I love the beautiful sound of wind chimes; they have a very calming nature. I have a phone app called moods that allows you to play a variety of sounds. Wind Chimes are one that I play often, but it doesn’t come close to the real thing. I love seeing the chimes blow in the wind.
This toy belonged to my dad. There's a bee stinging the dog's ass, and when he's wound up his tail rotates and he hops around in circles. It still works pretty well, but his tail has corroded over the years.
Headed out to Wind Point today for a few photos. Weather was perfect and I had a good time. Its a great place to go whether you're a photographer, or just want a family outing.

Altamont Pass Wind Farm is located in the Altamont Pass of the Diablo Range in Central California. It is one of the earliest wind farms in the United States. Considered largely obsolete, these numerous small turbines are being gradually replaced with much larger and more cost-effective units. The larger units turn more slowly and, being elevated higher, are claimed to be less hazardous to the local wildlife. This claim is supported by a report done for the Bonneville Power Administration

We passed many wind farms, like this one in Minnesota. The wind turns the "pinwheels" which generates electricity in a totally clean, non-polluting way.
Stevige wind op de dijk IJsselmeerdijk vandaag. De windmeter op Tollebeek piekte even naar 9 bft. Met een beetje hulp van het jack was het aardig hangen in de wind.
