A neighbour asked me, "Why circles and curves?" and I was stuck for an answer.
They just suggested themselves and feel right (sheesh!). Why does the world have to be constructed around straight lines, lines of least resistance, lines of greatest efficiency? Maybe curves are inefficient, wasteful even, but they do something to me something "Mother Earthy". Maybe they are reminders of the pre-Classical influence in Britian, bronze-age potato plots. Maybe it's something to do with the cyclical nature of nature, of times and seasons, of orbits, of rhythm of day and night, life and death. I could arty-fartify these plots of ground, but I won't, they just sort of look good.
