Sculpture and landscape creates a unique
experience that cannot be duplicated in a
gallery or museum.
When you put sculpture in the open
air……everything around it changes!
By the second, by the minute.
The complementing forces of art and
nature matched with freedomand trust.
Perceptual playground- a place to enjoy
and be yourself, offering
an environment for personal learning.
Experiencing art in nature is more
relaxed because nature belongs to
everyone.
