TOTEM LATAMAT surrounded by lasers in Milton Keynes |
As TOTEM LATAMAT makes its journey towards Glasgow for Cop26, we are asking people who encounter it along the way to write guest pieces about the encounter. Joan Harris was part of the group from Interfaith Milton Keynes who welcomed the totem to Station Square.
I was surprised at how colourful and beautiful the totem is! The photo in the initial information I had seen obviously showed the totem not finished, so it was a glorious sight against a blue autumn sky. The juxtaposition of the totem against the building project behind it focused the message of nature being dominated by human activity. The gathered observers raising their voices in song (even in 2 parts in rounds!), is encouraging that we can work together for the good. Thanks to all involved in getting that beautiful symbol and art here to our city.
