`Impossible Dream'

By  Bob Budd 2017
Installation: A pair of spectacles made of sheep fleeces located in La Fabrica de la Llana (Wool Factory) in Andorra, as part of the ALA 2017 arts festival. The principality of Andorra - what a strange place, packed with day visitors from Spain and France, there to buy the duty free goods. It still had memories of a pre-consumer existence, like the old sheep factory. The old factory, decaying, partly ruined, the floor boards about to give way, the place of the exhibtion, windows looking out, the wind blowing through, the spectacles looking in, the sheep looking back at us from an earlier age, what did they see, what might they see now....
