aha - circles and dots

When preparing a post on different artists I try to find a common link.  The common link here is the fact that these artists have their studios on the same site.  Going through the pictures I've taken I noticed dots and circles are the extra common feature for the following...

Jessica Sessinou - artist's name Jelessi


Jelessi





spend quite some time to find out who made these, without result





Antje Warnstorff


Antje Warnstorff





Gerhard Günther

GrenzKunstRoute011 continued

one fine day in August...

we head towards a forest overlapping a tiny part of the Belgian-German border near Aachen



with some very peculiar trees with a history



a walk through the wood reveals works of art


Andreas Hetfeld (NL) - Home





Dieter Call (DE) - 3 Meter Raum





Dieter Call (DE) - don't walk walkway






Karin van der Molen (NL) & Pat van Boeckel (NL) - Space Invaders





a few of these cabins are spread over the forest, inside each one a sculpture...

Maarten Fleuren & Kees Reijnen (NL) - Einsiedler (immigrants)





Marion van der Sant (DE) - Ratschläge (advices)





Martine Plateau (BE) - po me de terre





Laconi Carlo Salvatore III & Gianleonardo Viglino (IT) - info@ssile/Kudurru 1 (detail)





Werner Henkel (DE) - Schonung


the weather is turning really bad, a heavy summer rain interrupts our stroll, we're not prepared for this and run towards ...

the nearest shelter ... into a work of art...

which turns out to be... a shower!  funny coincidence

Suus Baltussen (NL) - Refreshment 
(we were quite refreshed indeed, thanks Suus for the shelter, sorry for the mud we might have left behind)
