Discover Ibiza: Time and Space!

Ibiza isn’t just parties & clubbing.

The white island has so many special places to discover.

One of these is “Time and space”, an open air monumental work created by the sculptor and artist Andrew Rogers.

Andrew Rogers presented the opera on  his website :”Thirteen solid basalt columns forming a Fibonacci sequence located on the edge of a cliff facing the ocean in Ibiza, Spain.The tallest column, ten metres in height, is highlighted in 23-carat gold to reflect the message with the setting sun on the day of the Winter Solstice.The sequence is laid out around the circumference of an ellipse alluding to the trajectories of the planets moving around the sun. It is a vision of time and space the the interconnectedness of humanity. The Fibonacci sequence is demonstrated both in terms of height and spacing.Extracted and carved in Turkey, the 420 tons of basalt were loaded onto a dedicated ship and transported 4,400 kilometres to Ibiza, Spain.The columns are mounted on basalt bases weighing from 7.2 tons to 12.5 tons. The tallest column weighs 19.5 tons.  Construction commenced on 17 January, 2014 and was completed one week later on 23 January.

Our suggestion? If you go to Ibiza, this place already called by many people “The Ibiza Stonehenge” is a very special spot to visit.

How to get there?   How to get there? Go to Cala Comta, before arriving past the Bar Stop, about 800 meters on your left you will find a stone with “Can soleil” on (see the picture), enter in the road for about one km and you will arrive.

The place is really beautiful, especially at sunset.

Around there is also a beautiful view…

And you also admire  “Es Vedrà” from a different perspective.

If you are in Ibiza, discover the secrets of the magical island!
