“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

Covent Garden often has installation artwork on display, but the city went nuts (myself included) for Charles Pétillon’s installation Heartbeat.
It’s down now, replaced by festive decorations (check those out too), but I’m still thinking about the gorgeousness weeks later, so I thought I’d spread some of the fond memories to kick the week off on a positive note. I’m waiting until Thanksgiving has passed to crack out the Christmas music and kick off yuletide, just three more days, but this is a nice amuse bouche, non?
The oriental jackets were a thing when I was a girl in Japan. All the school kids had one.
