To Help Glaciers With The Colour Blue
2024 - ongoing
“To Help Glaciers With The Colour Blue” is a photographic research on the use of geotextiles to preserve glaciers in Switzerland.
To slow down the melting of glaciers, geotextile canvasses are placed over the glaciers and their surrounding snow. These textile canvasses ensure that the cold remains trapped under the canvas and the sunlight is reflected back into the sky above.
For this project I am exploring different Swiss glaciers by foot and I have made a cyanotype print together with the Sankt Annafirn glacier in Andermatt, Switzerland. With these cyanotypes nature becomes her own artist, allowing sunlight to imprint abstract images of the glacier’s landscape onto the canvasses.
