Those who still do not believe in dragons need to urgently go to the beach located in the English county of Dorset, which now houses a huge prehistoric lizard head … However, these are not at all the remains of the Scottish Nessie, but commercial for the TV series "Game of Thrones".
It's amazing how often news began to come from England that some giant animal had been thrown onto this or that coast in this country. Just two weeks ago, we talked about a hyperrealistic installation in the form of a whale that appeared on the banks of the Thames in London. And now an even stranger event has happened in Foggy Albion - a dragon's head has been bared on a beach in Dorsen County!
Just over a month ago, the third season of the fantasy series Game of Thrones ended on HBO. And very soon it will become available for online viewing through the Blinkbox TV streaming service. An unusual installation in the form of a giant dragon skull on the English coast is dedicated to this event.
It took a team of three sculptors over two months to complete this massive facility. The dragon's skull looks like the surf, washing away part of the beach, has exposed ancient fossils that have been lying on this site for millions of years.
In Great Britain, there are many legends about huge lizards that live in caves and bodies of water. Loch Ness Nessie is just the most famous of them. And only now, with the appearance of the dragon's skull on the beach in the South of England, these legends finally acquired blood and flesh (if this, of course, can be said about fossilized bones). Let it be a modern reconstruction, created by people, and not by nature!

How to get to the Mars branch on Earth: Hormuz Island, where the sea and the coast are red
The first sensation that arises for everyone who has seen this extremely arid and extremely bright island in the center of Iran is one thing: you are on another planet. Houses of all colors and shades, Iranian hippies scurrying through the streets, local women in clothes unusually bright for ordinary Iranians (a multi-colored dress and no less colorful patterned veil) - this, of course, is unusual. But the most shocking feature of Hormuz is its multi-colored sand, for which the island was nicknamed Rainbow Island throughout the world. They also call him filia
Giant fire-breathing dragon: Dragon Bridge in Vietnam
The fire-breathing dragon occupies a special place in Vietnamese culture: traditionally the inhabitants of this country consider him their "progenitor", and the very outlines of the territory of Vietnam resemble a giant dragon with a bent neck. It is natural that they strive to immortalize the fire-breathing giant in architectural landmarks. For example, the unique Dragon Bridge was recently built in Da Nang
Evening party on the beach. Flashmob Black Tie Beach 2011
An evening party is a place where serious men discuss serious matters, and society ladies have conversations, and all together weave intrigues. Amazingly interesting. Maybe it's better to go to the beach and play volleyball or build some sand castles?

The Dragon: 40,000 buttons golden dragon. Kinetic sculptures by Robin Protz
Life is space and movement, and installation is probably the only genre of contemporary art that can be called "living", based on these two components. Although, kinetic sculptures can also be called "alive", which occupy the border niche between installation and sculpture, hovering in the air both literally and figuratively. American artist Robin Protz is one of those who prefer to develop this particular direction of modern
