Venice, Corsica and Thailand
Philippa and I have just returned from Venice where Synergy was exhibited as a finalist in the Arte Laguna Prize exhibition The exhibition opening and award ceremony was a glittering affair at the Arsenale Venice where we were one of ten finalists in the new Land Art category along with works by 115 other international artists from 30 countries.
After a absorbing the history, beauty and art of Venice we travelled to Corsica where we explored the beauty of the mountains climbing on granite and hiking. The Corsican landscape is spectacular and in March is uncrowded if a little chilly.
Finally we went to an Accor luxury beach hotel Sofitel Hua Hin in Thailand where of our environmental artworks adorn the walls of 35 five star rooms. My job: to sign them all.
Returning to our home in the mountains of New Zealand we are struck as always by the natural beauty of the landscape and reminded of how lucky we are to live and work here.
