Arrive to Paradise, take a seat.....!
I was surprised when we arrived in Subiaco on Tuesday to find a new piece of public art had been installed since my last visit not so long ago. This sculpture by Iraqi born Ayad Alqaragholli titled 'Arrive to Paradise' is 3.3m high and weighs in at 760kg, the angels are sculpted from high tensile steel and the chair silicone brass. I love it, it is so very typical of his distinctive style, do you remember this one I posted back in March from Sculptures by the Sea in Cottesloe. I wonder if any of you recognize his work as he has exhibited in many cities around the world. It was only when I got home and did the research that I discovered that he would actually be happy for people to sit in the chair and have photos taken, darn if only I knew I could have had lot of fun with that oui! Ah well, this time next week Christmas will be well over, nice...bah humbug haha!! Happy Thursday, take care..
