Kaj oblikuje tvojo resničnost?
Kaj verjameš?
V kaj verjameš, toda ne moreš dokazati?
Od kod pridejo barve?

“It’s nice to talk like everyone else, to say that the sun rises, when everybody knows it‘s only manner of speaking.”

Tisto sončno sobotno jutro v Hyde Parku ni bilo to, kar razumem s tipičnim englishness, malodane me je spominjalo na zagrebški Maksimir.

Approaching the Serpentine Gallery from the north, I could see this year’s “summer” pavilion quietly emerge behind tree crowns. Its authors are artist Olafur Eliasson, who gained planetary renown due to his giant sun installation called the The Weather Project for the Tate Modern, and architect Kjetil Thorsen.
