You found a traveling stone!

Part of an inspiring art project with traveling miniatures and art on the walking trails.

These unique painted stones travel around the world. Every traveling stone spreads its own story of message of one of the participants of this art project. Here you find info about this project.
Below the story of this stone, location journey and meetings with hikers.

The miniature, location and message.





This stone is dedicated to the story of the Large Blue:

“The large blue (Maculinea arion) is part of a series travelling miniature stones depicting endangered or vulnerable animals in Europe. I want to bring attention to these special animals through this art project.
Spread the word and move the stone!

The development of this butterfly species is very specific. In July the young caterpillar lives of the flowers of a caterpillar hostplant. At a later stage, the caterpillar falls on the ground and waits for it to be taken away by the ant of the species myrmica sabuleti. He then overwinters as a caterpillar in the ant nest, where the pupation takes place.

The large blue is extinct in The Netherlands and Belgium, it does appear in France and The UK. Via this stone I want to give this beautiful butterfly extra attention.”

This stone started travelling on 2019-07-01.

Besides the travelling stones, there are also “resting stones” with stories, placed on the trail. Together all these stones form the international art routes.

This art project wants to pleasantly surprise hikers through miniature art. A second goal is to initiate a new form of communication and awareness,through art and social media. The participant and I are looking forward for your story or response on this stone! (possibly with photo)
