Mr Monkey in Ostende, 16th September


"It's quite interesting, but it doesn't seem to lead anywhere"

Mr Monkey scampered through the streets of Ostende to the Leopoldpark, to see his first Beaufort Outside exhibit. Here he found Xu Bing's Stone Path, which is a set of 76 stones - each carved with a Chinese character from an 11th century poem by Su Shi - arranged as a path. Mr Monkey was interested to see that some of the characters were filled in with sawdust and he wondered if it was deliberate.
