We visited the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow earlier this month. Of particular interest for me was this exhibition titled Expressions. The main display centerpiece of this exhibition was this collection of free hanging “heads” with a variety of interesting expressions. Quoting from the museum’s description:
Expression – Heads by Sophie Cave
The head sculptures in Kelvingrove were designed by Sophie Cave of Event Communications Ltd. There are 95 heads, with four different expressions.
We felt the Expression court needed an iconic object that would balance the Spitfire in the Life court.
By the way, going back to my roots in digital photography with the Canon Powershots S10 and G3, I have bought a Canon Powershot S5 IS for use on the occasions when lugging around a DSLR might be impractical. The twist-and-flip LCD screen certainly comes in handy when I need just the odd angle that may be difficult to achieve with a DSLR. The built-in image stabilization was certainly useful in helping get the above shot sharp at 1/8 sec without a tripod. The 12x zoom is another definite welcome feature!
