I don’t know if “covey” is the correct word – but it’s more than one bird, yet they are not enough for a flock. But this being “public art” I guess the frame is the important detail anyway.

To Be or not Art is the Answer
I came across this “park of sculptures” in summer. It is basically an abandoned plot of land with a variety of sculptures from two or three artists littered around. One of the central pieces carries the words “to be or not art is the answer” (yes, equally scrambled in German). I thought it was exactly right for today’s challenge.
Abstract Sculptures
Some of these are in parks, some in the front of large buildings, others are almost dumped unceremoniously in a corner of a free space between two roads. None are really the center of attention. All are non-representational.
Wood & Metal, Sun & Rain, Sweat & Tears
The statue of the mouse (from The Gruffalo fame) is less than two years old. The wood has weathered well so far, as has the yellow coat of paint but a bit of photographic weathering deepens the cracks and fissures. Photoscape has an antique photo filter to round off the look.
This metal and wood sculpture of a warrior has been weathered by rain and wind and sun and given a dark vignette around the outside to complete the picture.
This sun, again enhanced with an antique photo filter from photoscape and artificial back lighting, looks a lot more weathered now.
Finally, a black panther made of metal and covered in rust, has been contrast heightened and backlit and scratched.
