I'd been told I would like it and that there was a wooden building in the gallery, so I was quite excited about it before I got there because I love wooden buildings. I also knew that there was a surprise inside, but deliberately didn't look online beforehand because I wanted to see it fresh.
This photo in the entrance hall promised good things.
As for the main event? Well, I'm not generally a fan of installation pieces but this one I loved.
It is a reconstruction of a trapper's cabin in Canada, but not built in logs. It is a plywood construction and to that they have applied photographic imagery to the outside, so there are photos of logs and photos of windows, photos of bricks on the chimney.

Every now and again a star falls into the water of the lake, which ripples gently. It's mesmerising and induces a bit of a trance-like state. |
