Strange Visitors at Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens

With water and electricity cut for a few hours today, I met with a friend at one of my favourite places in Cape Town, South Africa… Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens.

With spring exploding with flower carpets all over and a hot sun in the windless sky, I was fascinated by some very strange visitors at Kirstenbosch Gardens and especially the way they seemed to communicate:

African Scluptures

Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens often features Sculptures of African Artists with their incredibly simple lines filled with eternal meaning.

Pablo Picasso and other famous European artists would not have evolved into who they became without an in-depth study of African Sculptures.

Coming from… or going towards… that’s the question. An African question at all times… but not only.

Burnt by the African sun… for me it felt like the hottest day of the year – so time to escape my reflections in stone and return to Noordhoek.
