I was inspired to read David Nash's book by an exhibition of his work at the Tate St Ives. Nash likes to create sculptures of wood that will change and weather with time placing them in a natural environment. The exhibition showed a video journey of Nash's wooden boulder as it travelled due to wind weather and water through the welsh landscape until it eventually reached the sea. I was intrigued by the idea and the challenge faced by the sculler each time he went i search of his creation. I wonder where it is now?
