Salt Paintings
During each month I collected round 40 litres of seawater and left it to evaporate in room’s temperature.
The results of the process were dehydrated salt crystals and algae on an acrylic plate. The seawatercolour paintings represent the state of the Baltic Sea during the month in question.
Together the 12 paintings (May 2012 trough April 2013) create a colour calendar that makes visible the monthly variations in the quality of the seawater.
The seawater evaporated in a 100x70 cm frame.
