Following a phonebook pages paper trail, I was fortunate to get close enough as the sun set, that I could find it. Though who could miss it, all light up brighter than a Christmas tree. That definitely looks like a phone box...
Who are these creatures ranged round the top of the edifice? Why are they there? What more can I see before I'm called in for dinner? In which case I'll have to hope it's still there come daylight.
Daylight, and some more evidence comes clear:
There seem to be a lot of broken parts hanging off the side
The other side:
And some closeups. A strange mixture of patching the broken glass panes - part of the plastic bag the new phonebook arrived in... (can you see the prehistoric person stamped behind it? He is there.
Maybe T-Rex was after some shrooms
I sent DH's new drone up, and discovered a "helipad" precariously still attached. And more of those alien az-tech guardians from Rubber Dance, one of them sending telepathic thoughts
While the drone is up, there are quite a few antennae trying to get a MayDay out:
A quick look at the back before we dare inspect and open the door...
Inside, it is crammed with past attempts at repair, at propitiating the gods...
They even tried cupcakes - though how they cooked them, I have no idea, as blue light isn't very hot.
So after a solid winter's day "digging" into this archaelogical treasure, let us tiptoe away and leave the Paranoid Policeman to man his station until the Good Doctor returns with a repair crew.
So many subtle & not-so-subtle images from http://www.rubberdance.com/ - text, or excerpts from phrases, mushrooms, Aztec dolls, runes & petroglyphs.
The phone box is from Things To Alter

ReplyDeleteWOW x 10! Even if I don't get all the Dr Who references (*ducks*), this piece and your story knocks my socks off (if I had any on to begin with). There are so many hours of labour and thoughts put into this, which in itself is VERY impressive, and for any Doctor Who fan I understand that there is so much more. What can I say, but a big, BIG thank you, Anne, for sharing your awesomeness and out-of-this-world creativity with us and for showing ME how my own stamps can be part of it all, in more ways than I could even imagine. THANKS!!!!

This project is stunning; textures, details, lights, story ... you nailed it all Anne!
ReplyDeleteHello,it's Sandie from Rhedd's Creative Spirit...sorry you weren't able to link up..there is a problem with links to facebook entries and that is if you aren't friends with one of our design team, we can't comment.We had a facebook entry before and I had to get Nan to let her know we couldn't comment...
ReplyDeleteThanks Sandie, that's why I keep my facebook "arty" albums Public, so friends aren't compulsory :)
DeleteDear Anne, OMG. What a fab piece. I love all the ways you used the Rubber Dance stamps and all the amazing details. Feeling a bit sorry for the smurf stuck in the door but maybe the minion will pull him out before they have to face the space time continuum again. Your post is a delight in itself. Keep up the weird and wacky. Hugz
ReplyDeleteThanks, so glad to fins there are people "out there" who appreciate my wackiness. As for the smurf... I saw the movie for the first time last week!
DeleteFabulous Anne! I love each and every bit of this amazing Police Box! Wicked storytelling and always a pleasure to follow! Thanks for playing at Things to Alter!~kim
