26 February 2026 – From far off, even from medium far-off, the stainless steel in Natalie McHaffie’s sculpture Solo appears to be exactly what it is:
solid bars of stainless steel.
When I move in close, my cheap-end-of-the-range (and very old) iPhone cannot cope.
It reads that solid steel as a lustrous fabric rippling in the breeze.
Entirely misleading.
Also magical.

/ 27 February 2026Me too! First the up-close pleasure with my own eyes, then the up-close camera surprise
Rio
/ 27 February 2026Well, perhaps you need a larger context, perhaps centuries, for your eyes, to see the rippling?
