"For some art projects you end up just having to use a plinth. It makes your work stand out in contrast to the clean straight lines and neat paintjob." Cameron Robbins.

In the land of waterfalls - Fjaler, Sogn og Fjordane, Norway - artists Per Kristian Nygård and Cameron Robbins construct a plywood exhibition plinth (sokkel), plus accessories, for this project at Harefossen (the Hare/Rabbit waterfall) in late spring while meltwaters are raging.

With assistance from Nordic Artists Centre Dalsåsen Norway (NKD), fellow artists-in-residence and associates.
