Geocache Description:


The cache can be used as a prop in photos of the art!

This is part of a series of 17 geocaches placed near outdoor art installations. The geocaches will only be available until mid-October (although this one is likely to be out for longer).  For other geocaches in the series, see the bookmark list UCA 2018.  You may also find helpful the following guide to the UCA geocaches: (link to google drive document).

If you notice any damage to the art installation, please mention it in your log. The cache owner will communicate with the artist.

At the posted coordinates you will find the geocache. Its shape is inspired by the nearby outdoor art, which is just to the west along the road. Feel free to use the cache in any pictures you care to take of the art or yourself or the surroundings. Farm machinery uses this road regularly, so please avoid obstructing the road when you park.

Stop 1: "Emergency Exit" by Nicole Evans and Patrick Farrell

Artist's statement:  The artists return to the theme of doors in their eleventh installation for Uncommon Common Art.  What seems like a simple illusion of flight is in actuality a complex feat of engineering.  Not only do the artists fight gravity, they also fight the brutal North Grand Pre wind, an old and constant nemesis.  This piece is in keeping with their mandate of making art from found objects.
