just a moment with Sue de Vanny

Sue de Vanny from Melbourne, Victoria has travelled to Prague and is fascinated by the Orloj astronomical clock built in 1410:

The Orloj clock  is one of the oldest astronomical clocks in the world. Through centuries the clock has been refurbished and even partly rebuilt due to damage in World War Two. The dials show important astronomical events, the movement of the sun, the way the sun orbits around the earth (not the opposite way around), phases of the moon, the equinoxes, seasons, days and the zodiac.

Here are some work-in-progress shots of Czech 1410 which is inspired by a photo by Darby Sawchuk (with permission):

just a moment is a series of daily blog posts from 29 January to 29 February 2016 that will feature an artist and preview their artwork from a matter of time. The exhibition will premiere at the Stitches & Craft Show, Sydney: 3-6 March 2016 and continue on tour in 2016/2017. All welcome!
