At Macquarie University, there is what they call a Sculpture Park.<\/a> I call it personally the Garden of Stones.<\/p>\n

It is like an impressive amount of sculptures and stones dispersed throughout the campus.<\/p>\n

THAT IS SO COOOL !!! Sometimes, when I had the time, before my IT& Society workshop, I used to eat on one of the stone, under giant trees and in front of a enigmatic sculpture. It is a sanctuary somehow.<\/p>\n

On the drawing above, you can see an interpretation of a “Statue menhir” (called “la Dame de Saint-Sernin). It comes from Saint-Sernin-sur-Rance (haha) and is dated from the later European Neolithic.<\/p>\n

That was the general culture minute. I am not sure I can make this joke in English though.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Anyway, I certainly did not see Mrs.Saint-Sernin into the Garden of Stones in Australia but last week, I received an adorable postcard with this statue on it, which has reminded me one of the sculpture so I have established a link between. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

“The Sculpture Park is a ‘space of possibilities’, where the environment and people interconnect through a process of discovery, enjoyment and learning. It also allows for social interaction where collective interpretation and reflection can be shared. The Sculpture Park’s significance is globally recognised by the International Directory of Sculpture Parks, and was listed by Best Value Schools as one of the 25 most amazing sculpture gardens in the world.<\/em>“<\/p>\n
