Routen wheels background




This is a bit of background info to anyone who looks at my piece in the Victoria square tonight and is wondering what on earth it is. I took these photos while sailing this year on Strangford lough . At the mouth of the lough is the Routen wheels which are a sailing hazzard, large whirlpools of water that can whip your boat in the opposite direction, or depending on the size of the boat drag you around in circles. Although I think the colours of the piece I got more from my recent trip to Ibiza, it's thatblue that is so important to your emotional well being on hliday.
