Site_Specific 2013: a huge success

The second Site_Specific International Land Art Biennale has definitely left a mark in the Plett landscape in the shape of thought-provoking artworks and installations. I also feel that it has left its mark on the minds and hearts of everyone who was part of the event in some way. It was such an incredible week, with a diverse set of experiences and opportunities to interact, to create and to learn. Here's some glimpses, mostly featuring images from the Site_Specific Pinterest and Facebook pages:

Created by PC Janse van Rensburg, during Andrew van der Merwe's
Beach Calligraphy Workshop

Andrew van der Merwe's Beach Calligraphy Workshop resulted in many more beautiful sand creations by Site_Specific artists and other workshop participants. This was one of the many ways in which the public could get involved with the event, and currently the Photography competition is still ongoing!
