Their work is displayed both indoors and outdoors. Their spirit pieces are permanently placed at the sculpture park to interact with the surroundings like the sculpture placed in the lake for example as it provides the right setting for the piece. Some of their other pieces such as their clouds are placed in exhibitions to be viewed with other pieces of art.

What are the main ideas / concepts
behind their work?
Some of the common themes I have seen in their work are elements of fantasy and myth gathered from their Spirit pieces and their clouds containing concepts of magic carpets. They combine these ideas with the world issues and the things they have seen and gathered from those issues.
