Die Kirche Ta’ Pinu erhebt sich frei in der Landschaft, ihr helles Steinmaterial steht im Kontrast zum Himmel. Der Bau aus den 1930er Jahren vereint traditionelle Formen mit klaren Linien. Im durchgehend ruhigen Innenraum fallen vor allem die sorgfältig gearbeiteten Kapitelle, Reliefs und Ornamente auf, in denen sich handwerkliche Tradition und Zurückhaltung verbinden.

It's very important that no one paints over the silhouette with any permanent dye like methylene blue. It is sold without restriction as a fish-tank cleaner. That would be a nightmare to clean off. There may be ways to impregnate dye into stone and then seal it in, and it would be important that no one did that either. I'm sure other more learned minds will be along directly to highlight things that would increase the permanence of this silhouette, so they can be avoided.

If and when the artwork is finally eradicated, placing carefully computed objects between the wall and each surrounding source of street light might create the same effect at night, using shadow rather than ink to create the silhouette. This usually doesn't require permission of the wall owner. The inverse of this, which people must avoid of course, would probably be repainting the silhouette with indocyanin green dye (or similar), and replacing all the street light sources with bulbs that output UV as well as visible-spectrum light. This would not be visible by day, but the shape would appear by night, faintly glowing under the UV, as if a ghost.

This is no flight of fancy in stone, no Gormenghast or literary folly, this chapel of ease exists because of single minded determination.
A kirk by a loch, but do you know where?

Ancient Inca engineering at its finest: the agricultural terraces of Huchuy Qosqo (Kakya Qawani), like a giant stone staircase in the mountain. Each level required precise stonework. While terracing is common in the Sacred Valley, their scales and precisions remind us of the immense effort required to build them.

John Burnside the snake is a snake; but the toad has a human face, in the hidden gallery under the roof, where the masons practised their art, away from the bishops and kings. We’ve seen this muc…

Look at the work the Stonemason put into creating this Celtic cross.
