Convergence

It looks like there was an interesting art installation in Oxted recently:

gallery:space presents documentation and remnants from Lee Simmons’ art events that took place at Oxted Quarry and Betchworth land fill site.
The work in the gallery is accompanied by a site specific
installation and colouring event in the park, using material
and techniques from the earlier works.

“A highly visible chalk face was coloured at the recently landfilled Betchworth Quarry with assistance and input from Surrey Fire and Rescue Search and Rescue team who abseiled across the chalk face spreading pink powder as they went. 42 primary coloured sheep, donated by a local farmer, grazed at the foot of the cliff, creating a colour saturated, enhanced landscape.
This performance triggered a discussion whereby local people and invited
guests were reminded by the event unfolding in front of them that the meadow
they were relaxing in was actually a tip, in which the smell of methane gas was present in the air”

Almost makes me want to head up to Finsbury Park to have a look.  Another link with photo.
