Cairn translations

The newest items on the web site are the cairn translations: reconstructions of a single cairn in multiple locations. The same stones are reassembled in different places, with subtly different configurations, highlighting the different resonances a cairn has with its surroundings and playing with our expectations of inertia and stasis.
