First trip round the sun

April 3, 2012

'Finding Patterns' began one year ago.  I celebrated by experimenting with the flight of an armful of brilliantly coloured helium balloons in the eleven storey department stairwell - this is my makeshift studio and balloon launching area amongst laboratory equipment at the foot of the stairs.  

In this tiny snippet of one of the launches - even the orange balloon finds its way towards the top.

In the afternoon, I made drawing studies in a the colourful office of a physicist.
