A Blank Canvas...sculpting begins

All the artists are working together at the back entrance to the Changchun Sculpture park. There's a big warehouse building with 4 rooms - sounds like a lot but the artists are packed in pretty tight and spill into a large outdoor area as well - where all the dirty work happens, the stonework, carving and welding. The first photos here illustrate how it looked on the day we did our tour of the site, before the chaos began. The next step has been model making.....here's just a few examples Eieanor and Alan (Northern Ireland), Theodor (St Martin), Lankonde (Niger) and Ryan (Aruba, in the Carribbean).
