Arab Spring installation

Still having some issues with the base of the piece.  Sean has said that he doesn't think it is going to work with paper or cardboard and has suggested sand.  I've brought some and tried it out ....

It's very wet as it was stored outside - however I am going to leave it and see how it dries over the weekend as I'm going to visit the family in Cornwall and then going off to Chatsworth to see the Caro sculptures in the garden.  I've not been in the house before so that will be interesting
