More Arrested Decay...





"In a decaying society, art, if it is truthful, must also reflect decay.
And unless it wants to break faith with its social function, 
art must show the world as changeable.
And help to change it."
Ernst Fischer


Or in this case...keep it in a state of arrested decay...

  6. I'm picking up on what Kelly said in a comment above. It's a good thing decay can be beautiful, because we're all going to be in that state one day! ;)

  7. I hope someone salvages that old lumber, some of it's sure to be nice.

    1. I don't know about that Woody...this is a state historical park so the lumber may not be available to anyone once it goes down...and there are a few buildings that have tumbled...the wood simply stays there.

  8. A lovely shot, Chieftess... another year or so and there'll be less of that still standing.

  9. Those leaning woods may be a safety hazard, but they create a wonderful sense of dramatic art.
