No, I hadn't seen this - I thought we'd missed the kite festival this year. And look - the featured nation is the UK - so it's starting to look like I'm meant to go..
Have you noticed a sudden explosion in festivals in your part of the world? When I drove around Norfolk at the weekend, there were signs for festivals and carnivals everywhere. Some, I suspect, must have just been invented
Still, a party's a party, whatever the excuse!

Well, not explosion of festivals in this part of the world
That kite thing seems to have a little tradition as well ...

Heheh, at first glance I thought he was playing golf

it must have been such an emotive experience...! the creation of art in the artistic HMB...
π: 0 β©: 1
yes. i have told him that it is my favourite beach and about HMB as well. not sure whether he got the point

I thought it was so very obvious

not too obvious at first because in portuguese we have different words: "contemporΓ’nea" e "temporΓ‘ria" - it wouldn't work...
one more new sweet emoticon...!

Contemporary art AND temporary art at the same time

Ah yes...the wonderful sand circles! Does he go up to the cliffs and photograph his work (like Goldsworthy) when he is finished, or does he do it simply for the meditative zen experience?

He does photographs and he sells postcards and such in a local store ....

I love this. It IS inspirational.

The idea to create a wonderful and elegant and drawing (with a lot of physical energy) which will only last for a couple of hours . almost mythological, wouldn't you say so ?
He is also doing "drawings" of mystical sea creature on algae covered rocks (which I had noticed and adored before). It was a great pleasure to talk to him (and a great relief that his english was excellent

I certainly do agree. The Buddhist sand painting tradition comes to mind - it is similar in some ways but quite different in others. I give Philippe much credit and respect!

... also Sisyphus came to my mind ....
(he is not present on the internet, only selling pictures, books and postcards in a local store=

There were a couple extra stanzas to my "Bluer than you" journal, this was one of them:
I'm blue as a bottle, I'm blue as a bone,
I'm blue as old Sisyphus rolling that stone.
I'm blue as a cop and blue as a thief.
I take all these pills and I get no relief.

So true ! And great lyrics !
But can we be certain that Philippe is NOT a condemned physiotherapist ? This has happened before (reference: Douglas Adams and others)
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh! Well, yes, hmmm... that would be the sense in which we are all condemned, I suspect...

But physiotherapists even a little bit more? I would find this comforting tonight ....
