Walking together

‘Walking Together’ is the name of this terrific and startling sculpture in Abbots Bromley Church.  It’s huge, as you can see, and is quite a surprise, because one doesn’t really see it at first. It hangs over the main-door and one passes right under it and into the body of the church before even thinking to turn round to see it.

I guess it’s quite a good symbol for thinking about the twelve months ahead.  2012 is going to be rather a tough year, and, for many, a bit of companionship during it will definitely be helpful.
