Well we are back in the land of the everyday (chores, revision, responsibilities) but lets try and make the holiday last at least one day longer by showing you Broomhill Sculpture Garden.
Artists of the Silk Road
Laury Dizengremmel
This garden is a genius of an idea. It belongs to a hotel – an ‘art’ hotel which is very nicely furnished with works of art but it also has huge grounds. So among the winding pathways and along the babbling brook they have installed sculpture.

So the whole garden works like a kind of open air exhibition with most pieces for sale.
I really love seeing sculpture in the open air because of the way it interacts with the habitat around it and also how you can interact with the sculpture pieces themselves.
This would be a prime example of that happening!
Antonia’s Dress – Peter Mountain
The sculpture helps to frame, lift or enhance the planting and after a while everything begins to look like it might have been an installation. Sometimes there were artfully stacked palettes resembling insect houses, other times a simple pile of twigs was just…a simply a haphazard pile of twigs! But it makes you think that everything can be sculpture and so nature is doing it naturally if we have eyes to see.

I feel a little like this sad mossy man now I’ve got a day of ‘catching up’ chores to do. If only holidays never ended!
