Beauty With Shadows and Light



It's a man, sowing seeds. Possibly a Soviet-era edifice, saluting The Worker.

Star Sower 1 of 2

Note the painting someone has done on the wall behind him.

They're stars -- nothing so special in the daytime.

But at night, when a spotlight shines on the statue of the sower ...

Star Sower 2 of 2

He's sowing stars.

Oh, NIFTY.

That's ... sort of what you do with your stories, actually.

It is nifty, isn't it? I just love it that someone actually looked at the shadow of that statue at night, and thought of this. I admire that person so, so much, because that is just such a great leap of imagination.

You should take a look at the first post on [livejournal.com profile] musecrack -- the one called The Post Human Identity (http://community.livejournal.com/musecrack/106616.html). Very cool. *g*

Yes, that is about as awesome as awesome gets without some sort of leather involved.

Yes, very kool indeed.

I wonder? do you think they had to get permission to do this on the wall? I mean? look how clean everything else is.

Y'know, I don't know if the artist got permission or not. It might just be one of those "urban guerilla" type works. It's entirely possible it's not even there anymore.

It's really hard to tell with this kind of stuff.

That is just brilliant.
