Prehistory and public art
frequently entangle.
Monumental forms
referencing deep
time of places,
expressions of
hoped for
futures, accrete.
On a coastal headland,
aggregation of ancient sites
Evoking trialothonic brutalisms of Stonehenge dreams
Gathering granite, megalithic family forms
Pierced, broken and reassembled
Providing glimpses of distant futures.
Menhirs for Peace is by Galician Sculptor Manolo Paz.
It can be found in A Coruña, Galicia and is located in the landscape around The Tower of Hercules World Heritage Site.
It is situated on a headland, with ancient rock art on the outcropping bedrock, which has been washed by waves and sea spray for millennia.
