So, time is going fast, too fast and it is hard to keep up with what happens and when! You know when you are aware of doing something but are utterly unable to place who, when, what and where to the point of discarding it as a possible dream?
The pictures from this day I remember very well however, I headed to Sloane Square early in the morning (too early for my liking! ) and was delighted by the fact that it really doesn't take long to get there at all!
Despite having work later that evening I justified a quick trip to the Saatchi Gallery, of contemporary art. The main exhibition was 'The Empire Strikes back' with work by Indian modern artists which I had already seen a few months ago, and wasn't a massive fan of (apart from the camel in a suitcase, how could you NOT love that?!) When I'd been before, however, I was camera-less and there were a few pieces that even a few months after my initial visit still crept up in my mind. So, to summarise thing up nicely, I went to the Saatchi Gallery and took some pictures..... :
20:50 - A piece by London artist Richard Wilson that looks like a really clean, polished and immaculate room but is in actual fact filled with oil. The smooth surface of the oil gives an amazing feeling of calmness, I would recommend checking it out, definitely!!
I'm not going to copy out all the info about the piece so if you'd like some further info:
This is my reflection in the oil - the whole place is an illusion of reflections
I have loads more pictures from the gallery and I had made a couple of montages, but being new to this whole 'blogger.com' I'm afraid to say I failed at making them work... So if one day in the future I manage to sort it out (or run out of new pictures) I will 100% upload them
I always walk about central London looking up rather than forward (which proves to be dangerous at times) but I do find the buildings fascinating, especially how they change depending where you are in London. And there's always the question 'who lives there?'
Won't you look at this little trooper?! Right out of a brick wall!
