Planted: 2010 Ornaments

There is something special about walking the village during the first hours of Christmas morning. The fog rolls in thick each year and a blanket of moisture splashes across the silent streets like an empty wave upon an undiscovered beach.

Each ornament is planted with thought and care. A relationship between the craft and its surroundings is created through the juxtaposition of color, shape and story. This relationship is paramount. An ornament is often hung, stared at and removed to later find a better fitting environment. Each ornament is tagged with a log number and each chosen location is recorded…

Thanks again for all your support and participation in this year’s PROJECT: Plant an Ornament. Keep your eyes open… we have many more ideas in the works!
