Christine Clark,artist writer, curator of the Balcony Gallery invited a group of artists install sculpture on 4 acres of forest lined with Deep Cove ocean expanse. The garden belonged to Mary and Moses Martin (from England), and their sons kindly consented to share the magical gardens with artists this weekend at the "Mary and Moses Sculpture Garden" show.
