One free creature to another

Walking the road by Marieke Prinsloo-Rowe is an 18-piece series of bronze sculptures on the promenade at Sea Point that tells the story of a girl who longs to fly. After a chance encounter with a dragonfly, she lives her dream. The sculpture is shown with Lion's Head in the background.
I always use my own photos, but today is an exception and I have posted a photo taken by Wendy Yeowart, a regular visitor to Cape Town, who is an acquaintance of the artist and told me all about the sculptures - really worth a visit!

  2. I finally saw these when I was in Cape Town recently for the Survivor auditions. Unfortunately I didn't have the time to stop and photograph them. Next time though I will.
