Two things from this week. A large stone #compass made by the sea, and the start of a #pyrography project: a box for one of my #tarot decks. (Forgot alt text the first time I posted)

"it comes to me that these stones are art themselves. And not just the structure as a whole, but each stone in itself is a statement, an end result of active decisions made. It was chosen, it was moved, it was placed here, the ground as the frame it’s fixed in saying: look at this, this is important."
Some thoughts on art, memory, history and other things after visiting the standing stones at Calanais last month.

Hello local friends.
Anyone know if the McLachlan Stone Circle in Rangitūmau is ever open to the public (or indeed if it still exists!). We went there back in 2001, just after it was constructed, but have never heard anything about it since.
At the time it was the only stone circle in New Zealand, and one of only two in Australasia.

A prayer I’ve left beside my favourite tree. Made from stones found right there on the ground, and woven old ivy vine.
