By September

I went to visit the work at the beginning of September to see what has happened to it. I was delighted to see that my perception in the site's fecundity had proved accurate; the area was overrun with wild grasses, flowers and ferns. And the ferns I had planted as part of the work had taken will and grown with vigour.
The impermanence of the work, on account of it being made from vulnerable, pervious materials sits well with the surrounding foliage whose days are also numbered.
The structure had maintained its shape but the plywood was trying to warp and split as it absorbed the Devon weather. The grid-like layered, glued and screwed structure, resists the movement in the materials, and so exposes the work's tension between stasis and entropy.

The logs were miraculously still in place although I knew they weren't quite where I left them. A construction worker on the site had put them in the skip. Rinus rescued them.
