Point of Resolution - Land Art

This Land Art work is at Piper's Knowe on the Southern Upland Way near Traquair in the Scottish Borders.

Fellow sculptor Charles Poulsen and I cut 'circles' out of mature heather on the sloping hillside. In reality the 'circles' are tortuous, elongated ellipses on the ground and only appear round at the singular Point of Resolution, uphill and along the Southern Upland Way.

Big stuff

Seen from the air you get a better picture of the concept - the Point of Resolution is near the bottom right-hand corner of this Google Maps snapshot.
