Two gardens from earlier festivals have been retained and replanted: an essay in dry-stone walling first made to mark the Millennium and now planted with thistles and umbelliferae [Palestine by Marmiroli, France, & Whalid, Palestine] and a mirror-garden featuring a river of colour-differentiated glass chippings [by Barzi, Casares & Co, Argentina]. Here, where an open field meets a patch of rough woods, Goldsworthy found the tumbledown remains of a dry-stone wall. The building is set on a north-east sloping site that offers views of the fjord, its islands and distant mountains, and of Tugenes, the tip of the promontory, with its strange parallel dry-stone walls which impose a powerful pattern on the meagre grassland. |
