Feather Flotsam © Caroline Dalton – Tarn Hows Cumbria Fred Art Invasion 2008. 4 metre x 1.7 metre Plastizote
& Steel
“...Found upon the Tarn a giant white feather floats on the surface moving freely across the water
in the direction that the wind dictates. Imitating the ‘transitory’ in nature and seeming somewhat ephemeral, the feather appears as a sort of enigma, but in contradiction it is produced as
an artificial man-made effect; like flotsam in return, it is controlled and affected finally by the changing elements alone”.
