Goddess of Flight
This morning I drove somewhere for my blip. I haven't done that for 44 days. Instead of a straight to the supermarket and back drive I went sideways to the newly developed area behind the Saxton Velodrome. I went here because my neighbours told me the Fiona Sutherland sculpture from the airport has been relocated there. I can't find the blip I did about this statue being in storage along Rocks Rd. I clearly remember seeing her behind a high mesh fence. The airport got a new terminal and it was decided it didn't need art !
A little lake area has been established with a wide footpath around it. I think some of the plantings have suffered with the summer drought and the Goddess is looking rather exposed. I'm sure it will fill in soon. I put the blurb about the sculpture as an extra. I think it is an evocative piece and I'm so glad it can be enjoyed again by the public. There was a strong wind blowing adding to the atmosphere.
P.S I found it
