Storehouse:
Sonja Hinrichsen is an artist who welcomes working outdoors–her tools are not pencil and paper, instead, they are her own feet and a layer of fresh snow. Her collaborators are the sun, shadows, and teams of hardy volunteers in snowshoes.
Imagine the effort that goes into the planning and execution of such large scale art. Beautiful, ephemeral stuff.
Lovely. But I can already hear my poor, loony cousin trying to link these drawings to alien-made crop circles, because of course they’re far too complex for mere humans to have ever thought up.
I feel for you. No one in my immediate family is like that. But, in a friends family. A close friend. Last years Christmas was quiet, with awkward smiles and slightly popped eyes, followed by slow head shaking.
I love the way everything is interconnected because of people having to walk to each pattern. Quite impressive.
