Blind Justice

The statue stands in a small square in Seville. It is in a fairly industrial area. Tilt the camera, all is forgotten. The difference between law and justice.

The statue is of the flamenco virtuoso

National Gallery of Modern Art

edinburgh festival

Been here for a few days now; plays have been working at about 40 : 60 annoying to good ratio. Recommendations:
  • 3women - sylvia plath - acted with conviction; nuanced performances; uneven at times but well worth it.
  • Diary of a Madman - Gogol - failbetter theatre company; great performance of a classic. Amazing feat of concentration.
  • Woody Sez - slightly cheesy but well intentioned musical exploration of Woody Guthrie's life and legacy.
