Delicately balanced stones. An ancient art. A modern art. A lot of fun.Â
In an ever more artificial world elemental simplicity provides fertile ground for artful expression.
Eastend, Saskatchewan 2008
I’ve been asked why i call this art form “rockatree”, whether it was “merely for the obvious bad pun?”
While that seems reason enough to name just about anything, there was another. To paraphrase Albert Einstein….
” the very first missiles were rocks and the very last ones will be too“.
