Water art


Do you love waterfalls? This summer, New York City will offer views of waterfalls extraordinaire. Scandinavian artist Olafur Eliasson will install 4 waterfalls at various sites along the East River, including one at the base of the Brooklyn Bridge. The falls will be between 90 to 120 feet high and will be illuminated after sunset.

Check out this site for more details:

Since a trip to NYC is not in my plans this summer, I’ll settle for a smaller version of water art at the Nature Center…

Leisure is a form of silence, not noiselessness. It is the silence of contemplation such as occurs when we let our minds rest on a rosebud, a child at play, a Divine mystery, or a waterfall.
- Fulton J. Sheen
