Art with a presence

I love king size art on big walls.

I remember I once tried to 'construct' a 15 cm thick wall by pouring cement around frame I even welded together, just to use it as a "canvas" to paint on. The heavy, strong, evenness and presence of stone walls attract me. Like a house that makes you feel safe. Well, that wall didn't last very long. Of course it soon broke and the effect was gone. But now I am regularly seen on a ladder! So point me any piece of brick or concrete, even large wooden spaces and I'm on my way!
