Gori! Part 2!

Two more of the pieces from the exhibit I'll actually talk about. The First was this room made up of coloured walls and mirrors. It was pretty fantastic and after the guide told us Artist/Date/Concept, she said (essentially) "Go play in it". We all rushed to the mirror box and proceeded to take a ton of pictures.






The other was this 'meditation' room, but the only door had a fountain blocking it. We climbed in anyway, so that was pretty good fun.



On the way to the fountain, there was a drinking fountain, called the "Lovers Fountain" or something like that. There was little faces inside it. Apparently the faces change on the different fountains in the facility. Also, you needed to keep your hand over the top of the fountain when you immediately turned it on, or else you'd get blasted by water.


Another exhibit was a path that lead into a hill, of which halfway was a small fountain in the floor and two seats for meditation, into the hill was a small tunnel which had a couple of trick dead ends and rose into a glass box at the top of some stairs.





Another of the really cool ones, was this stone and marble maze, which looked like a cube from the outside, but inside the maze is a lot longer then you'd origonally imagine. The Maze had TARDIS-like capabilities almost. Outside the maze was a sketchy wooden platform which you could see that the maze was not a square, but more of a rectangle.




They try to keep all the works 'as they are' after the artist installs the work and they do not alter the landscape in any way. However, one of the works was attached to a tree, which fell during a violent storm. It was getting late by this point, so the picture is pretty shitty, but the bridge we walked on was cool as well.





There was an amphitheater built into one of the hills in a small valley, which had placed on the top of a hill facing it a scuplture resembling a tuning fork. They put on shows in this little theatre often, apparently.




Also,in a bamboo forrest was a series of large concrete objects. Some geometric shapes and a large bell. I forget what the point of it was, but it was cool to get too and see.



There was also these large stone/metal sculptures creeping in the woods near the amphitheater.



That's all for now, but I uploaded a video to the youtubes of a street preformance I saw. It was pretty cool, so check it out.



Also, I woke up today to go running at 6am. Crazy I know. Anyway, until next time.

Ciao!
