[…] A year ago, I stumbled upon this magical place, by the Ottawa River, where John Ceprano is working on the art of balance. Last year’s work has probably been dismantled naturally during the winter, but the sculptures currently on display just blew my mind. They are taller, bigger, and there are dozens of them. […]

Oh wow!!! Those are incredible! I like how some of them look like little birds!

Amazing that they simply use gravity and balance to stay standing!

Thanks for showing these pictures!

Have a great day.

Yea, it's pretty unique Zhu - and now we both know that Norway have got one as a gift to prove our peoples good old friendship! Btw1: Sorry I'm not that much around commenting these days! A combination of overload work and Winter Olympics takes most of the time. Right now I am watching Norway vs Sweden in Curling and if we beet them, we probably go to the semi final... and then: Maybe we meet in the final!?! Btw2: How do you like the Norwegian Curling Team's trousers ? .-= RennyBA's Terella´s last blog ..Winter Olympics 2010 Inuksuk from Canada in Norway =-.

I see Inukshuks all over the place and never take any pictures of them. I will take a few snapshots and compile them in a post soon, because I love these sculptures! .-= Gabriel´s last blog ..Oshawa wanted the best, now they finally got the best =-.

oh yeah! i vaguely remember being told to stack two stones, then place a third stone next to the stack indicating the direction you were walking. i forgot all about that.
heh, in case i get lost in the woods.
also, you can make tea using pine needles.

What interesting work… I like the ones where he has used round stones for the heads of animal creatures. Nice!

@DianeCA — No, he hasn’t! I’d be curious to see some picture if you ever get the chance to post any.

@Max Coutinho — That makes me think I need a haircut! My hair grow extremely fast. You’d think it’s a blessing… but I’m complaing

@Seb — Sharks, and bears. Don’t forget the bears.

@Adam — Well, this was the first visit for me, and I’ve been living in Ottawa for quite a while! I didn’t know about it actually, a friend told me. Next time!

Jeesh. I visited my partner in Ottawa last October when he was working on Parliament Hill. We visited and really enjoyed the Autumn colours in Gataneau Park but missed the rock sculptures. I would have loved to see them. If only I’d known! Next time.

Very cool! he should make a giant rock shark sculpture as well, to remind people how dangerous swimming is because sharks are everywhere. .-= Seb´s last blog ..More Alphabetic Misadventures: P is for Persuasive =-.

Hey Zhu,

It looks great indeed! What an artist (when I think that he didn’t use any tool)!!

Girl, you look great! Your hair is longer…isn’t it?

Anyway, have a great week ahead !

Cheers
