Bathing Beauties

I have been looking at Installations by Architects for my dissertation topic and my main case study is a series of installations that sit on the Lincolnshire coast called Bathing Beauties. The pictures above are some images from when i went to see them over the summer. 

Gabriel Dawe

A beautiful installation by artist Gabriel Dawe. His work is greatly influenced by the bright colours found in Mexican culture. His installations are very visually absorbing and intense, using thousands of different colored threads....i can't imagine how exhasting these artworks would have been to complete!

Royal China

Some fun new designs for the royal wedding china this easter...see link for the full article.

Maunsell Sea Forts

Ex-army seaforts, built in my hometown in Kent, they were floated out to sea in the 1940's as a defense measure for the Thames Estuary during WW2. I hope to go and visit the structures next month.
