I couldn’t resist taking a picture of one of my favourite Australian natives.

WALKING ON EMPTY HEADS // September 30th 2013
Bangkok-based artist Nino Sarabutra filled the floor of Ardel Gallery in Bangkok with 100,000 miniature porcelain skulls and invites visitors to step on them, during her exhibition called “What will you leave behind?”. As her friends, family, and neighbors to helped make the skulls, she asked them to contemplate their life and think about what they would leave behind.
Basing her artwork on the Isan proverb “Death follows your every step. Until waking up in the morning and seeing each other’s face, it is uncertain we are still alive”, the artist wanted to highlight the fact that life is short and needs not be wasted. The purpose of the show is to stimulate people’s thoughts to make them aware that any day could be their last, thus encouraging every one of the visitors to get out there and do something.
Alternate reality

Man made structures like this water tower in Petersham stimulate my imagination. In another dimension this could be a spacecraft launch pad, helipad or lookout. I wonder if in one hundred years from now it will still be here or will it have been transformed into a penthouse residence with 360o views.
Beneath

There is nothing wrong with beneath.
Sometimes I prefer to dwell here
Among earthly things to amuse,
Running the risk of being caught
In tangled grip of undergrowth.
Too much to distract and let go,
Impeding my return aloft.
Inner light shines through the darkness,
Showing me the way to rejoin
The path, to soar above again.
