Anonymous, Art environment on Rousay Island
all pictures (2024) courtesy of Sophie Lepetit |
Amidst the island's natural beauty, there are more than one hundred ancient archaeological sites.
And then there's also a site, depicted in the surrounding images, that can be considered an art environment.
The images in this post show that the creations in the art environment often include depictions of all kinds of animals.
But there are also other items on display, such as above left a figure made of iron bandages and above right a large anchor and a small-scale lighthouse.
The image below shows a ship on dry land, and it's questionable whether this ship is part of the art environment.
In any case, the image gives an impression of the beautiful view one can have from the coast of Rousay Island.

Todor Atanasov and partners, Музей на света / Museum of the creation of the world
images (June 2025) in this post published here in agreement with photographer Martin Besnard |
The municipality of Novo Selo, with over 2,900 inhabitants (2011), is located along the southern bank of the Danube River in northwestern Bulgaria. The Danube also forms the border with Romania, located north of the river.
The municipality, which includes several wine-growing estates, encompasses a number of villages, including Novo Selo, which forms the administrative center.
A Museum about the Creation of the World
Novo Selo is a community that has existed since ancient times and when Todor Atanasov was its mayor, he was very interested in its history.
This led him to the idea at some point of creating an open-air museum depicting this history, also to attract tourists.
He shared the idea with several people in his circle, and it turned out they were also enthusiastic and wanted to contribute to such a project. And so a kind of an open air museum would indeed be realized on a four-hectare site near Novo Selo.

The many images in this post give an idea of a walking trail in a forest, which is lined with 24 sculptures.
The forest, known for a large, isolated monolith of hard limestone and classified as Natura 2000 for its rare flora, is located in the commune of Sollières-Sardières, in the Rhône-Alpes region of France.
