Op Art Formations appear near Aldbourne 

The two intricate circles that have appeared near the village of Aldbourne could be paying homage to the optical school of art of the1960’s by such artists like Bridget Riley and Victor Vasarely. These circles encourage us to look again at this wonderful school of artists. 

These two formations and the one that appeared at Shalbourne at the end of last season on the 8^th of August 2004 all have this marvellous characteristic. They seem, to me at least, to be implying other force fields and other dimensions that surround us all. Most of us live our lives pretty much unaware of these influences.  

These three apparently unpretentious but very precise formations carry a powerful message to us all and let us have a small glimpse of the unseen forces that surround us all.
