Many millions of years before any words were spoken on “our” planet, it was already being “adorned”, “painted” and “sculpted” by the greatest of all “abstract artists”.
Relative to a human’s lifespan – or an empire’s or a civilisation’s – some of Nature’s creations are “permanent”.
Others are “ephemeral”, even fleeting.
Uluru is “permanent”, a crisp morning’s hoar frost is “fleeting”.
In an arid landscape, the interactions between sand, wind and water can produce particularly beautiful “abstracts”.
Most of these “artworks” are ephemeral or fleeting.
