Hmm I'm not too sure of art like this. I would have much preferred to see someone carving each sleeper, maybe as commuters running for the train. Still each to their own I suppose!

I suppose budgeting constraints led to this being the cheapest option. I quite like it.
But I am fussy about a lot of art!

I don't think this works very well as "art", but hey, what do I know?

As an image, it's certainly eyecatching though!

I think it's an effective (and pleasing) representation of the transformation of the Spanish railway network into one of the most modern in the world. I like the artwork here.
But I do agree with your second sentence, Keith! :o)

I'm a new fan of sleeper art, Andy! I like this rustic abstraction against the interesting arched roof.

Diane,
Gudrun,
I agree with you both and although I agree with 99.9% of what Keith says, I don't agree with with him here on this one!

Always so much impressed by this kind of contemporary art anytime have the chance to meet it. And this is a very effective work enhanced by your perspective and compo.
