Frühlingsboten

2021/22
A series consisting of 8 drawings
Paint (food colouring, vinegar, flour, water) on snow on primed cotton fabric

At the end of December 2021, I placed eight pieces of cotton fabric on a meadow. After several days of snowfall, I drew into the snow on New Year’s Eve. In early January, the snow melted and the drawings transferred onto the fabric beneath.
The drawings show plastic fragments from firework and other party remnants such as champagne corks and confetti. I had found these the previous spring during a walk, leftovers from New Year’s Eve that appeared between the melting patches of snow.
