Sunday, November 6th, Cica Ghost opened a new next installation: “Camels and chameleons“. The thought Cica provides with the landmark description is a quote from Dr. Suess: “Think and wonder, wonder and think..”
As usual with Cica’s installation you shall use shared environment. You will get reminded upon landing. You should also set advanced lighting and activate shadows from sun/moon and projectors. The environment settings are part of Cica’s art. For “Camels and chameleons” she selected an green sky with yellow clouds. It looks hot. The ground is meager, sometimes it shows a chess pattern.

The vegetation is unique – mainly cactuses. Some of them have single blossoms. You also find palm trees and some pot plants. No surprise that the inhabitants are camels and chameleons. I searched the cat, but I didn’t find it. It was late when I visited. Maybe I missed it?
Of course there are places to dance and to sit, as usual in Cica’s installations.

“Camels and chameleons” has a store where you can purchase not only camels and chameleons but also the cactuses. As they are really particular and detailed with blossoms and thorns I consider getting one for my homeplace. Cica has arranged a thicket of cactuses at some areas. They look great eve as a forest.

There’s a lot to discover at “Camels and chameleons“. The camels and chameleons radiate calm and serenity, but at the same time they look curios at visitors. I smiled when I saw the pots of the cactuses that Cica had arranged in a seperate court – funny.
A visit to “Camels and chameleons” is a welcomed time-out from everyday life, a short trip to a fantasy world, seen with the curiousity of a child.

Thank you for another great installation, Cica!
As always, don’t wait to long with your visit to “Camels and chameleons” , you never know how long it may stay – it is a temporary world.
