I Collect Rocks, Paint Eyes On Them And Return Them To The Landscape To Be Found Or Lost Forever (10 Pics)
On a recent residency with Q Bank Gallery in Queenstown, Tasmania I began a project of transforming collected rocks into painted eyes and returning them to the landscape to be found or lost forever.
Queenstown has an extensive mining history and there were many unusual rocks everywhere. So I began a collection and what started as something for myself grew into a treasure hunt/community art project.

Creepy but fanatastic! In my village the local school children paint hand-sized stones and hide them in various locations. If you find one you take a photo of it, post the pic on their facebook site and there hide it again for someone else. I've not actually taken part by I do occasionally see the painted stones and think it's rather sweet.
Local school children? Don't you mean pupils? Sorry the jokes get cornea and cornea
