Nexus is by Alex Kosmas. This is a beautifully delicate work in the most exquisite shade of green (I've included one pic below where the colour of this work in bronze shows up against the sandstone). It just made my heart sing, and on both occasions I was there I was so pleased I went at dawn (one grey, one colourful) because I could spend ages alone with it.
The artist says: " The fast paced world forgets its connection to nature. 'Nexus' represents our lifeboat." If I had $50 000 I would buy it, but then I think I'd need another few million to build a house around it!

Sally, these are amazing! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThis sculpture is just amazing! Your photos have captured it so well....also, Happy Birthday Wishes sent your way!
ReplyDeleteI have to say I thought the first photograph was a painting. Not at all surprised this is your favourite - I am pretty sure it would be mine too. It's stunningly beautiful and of course made more so in this setting.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, dear Sally. If I could afford it I'd send you the money to buy it, but....can't quite manage it this week!
Get that first photograph printed on super paper, buy a beautiful frame - et voila, you have it in your living room. I would.
I can see why this is your favorite. It is stunning. Every one of your photos shows and different and equally beautiful version. I hope the artist finds a permanent place for it so that it can be enjoyed by lots of people.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday.
Happy Birthday and what an incredible series of shots. Just stunning.
ReplyDeleteThat is truly an incredible sculpture, and your photos capture it brilliantly. Thanks for sharing these wonderful images.

ReplyDeleteSally, I can readily see why you're so in love with this sculpture. Amazing!! And your sky is such a wonderful counterpoint with those clouds ! Yum!!
