Sometimes the sky falls. Bits of it can be seen trapped in odd places. Sometimes the sands of time run out, and leave
holes or form heaps.
Taking an
ordinary thing out of context can force the imagination to work overtime and the eye
to compensate for the lack of the familiar.
These pieces of sky and sand invite
the viewer to generate their own design
or story from the basic elements of the landscape, much as Thoreau saw lakes as "sky water".
We can constantly reinvent our visual world.
