Dreaming of Yes


Dreaming of Yes
Originally uploaded by Theorris

While visiting friends in Colorado, I had the opportunity to go to the Benson Sculpture Garden in Loveland. It is certainly and excellent place and something that SLC would be wont to emulate. While the sculpture was a mixed bag, none of it was exceedingly bad nor amateurish. The garden certainly could appeal to a variety of tastes.

Imagine if SLC actually cared for its parks? Imagine a sculpture garden by Lindsay Gardens where the "Salt Lake Garden Club" started a park nearly a 100 years ago and it went to pot because no one cared enough to preserve it. Imagine.

I was a bad photographer and did not note the names of the sculptures I was imaging. This sculpture, however, is by far the coolest and most evocative sculpture in the Garden.

The motion of it is stunning. I fear I do it little justice.
