Last edition’s Mystery Photo came from a new resident of Gwinnett, Molly Titus of Peachtree Corners. Paige Havens of Lawrenceville spotted it quickly, saying it is “…the Woven Whimsy Stickworks by Patrick Dougherty at the Atlanta Botanical Garden at Smithgall Woods in Gainesville.”
Also recognizing it was George Graf of Palmyra, Va. He says: “Sculptor Patrick Dougherty, also known as “the Stickman,” is widely revered for his signature temporary large-scale sculpture works. This most recent work, ‘Made from Scratch,’ was constructed at the Atlanta Botanical Garden in Gainesville. The five truncated conical shapes are entirely comprised of sticks sourced from sweetgum, sourwood and red maple saplings, bound and woven together until they stretch 14 feet into the sky.”
Also recognizing the photo was Tom McIntosh of Lawrenceville and Billy Chism of Cleveland.
