the gathering


the gathering, originally uploaded by stewartcutler.

This is an ornament from our livingroom, bought in a little shop in Keswick main street.

It's a gathering. A coming together. A meeting.

And when you place it in the centre of a room you become part of a greater meeting as the shadows of people flicker on the walls behind you reminding us of those who have walked before us.

Are they playing bongo drums?
Either way, it has an almost-African feel to it. Nice.

I think they are drumming. And I think the are from somewhere in the South Pacific but I'm not sure.
