I make things on the web, mobile and in the actual world.

I've done lots of bits and bobs over the years, and right now I'm mostly working on this.

I enjoy speaking about things I like, most recently this. You can email me if you'd like, and I'm on twitter.

Urban Land Art - Anna Garforth

(viewed 2694 times)

Show on map

I met Anna today whilst I was doing the Regents Canal geocaching route with my friend Robski. We were just coming back from the Victoria park cache when we saw her affixing leaves to the railing. She has done one full piece so far in Stoke Newington, spelling out the word 'Change', and I didn't think to ask her what this one is going to be!

There is an artist named Richard Shilling who does some absolutely amazing work with natural objects, do have a look at his photostream. I love how Anna's work takes place in urban surroundings, with both the materials and the location ensuring that the pieces only 'live' for a few days - there's something perfect about the transience through the materials.

I rather like that.

But what does she do when it's not autumn? Does she pre stack bags of leaves?
