A Cold First Week

It was an extremely cold week working out in the snow, yet rather fulfilling watching our creations take shape and change with the weather. The limits the snow imposed on the materials and type of artwork we could make meant that we worked more intuitively, interacting with the woods differently and finding ways to interpret the surroundings. The conditions in fact unleashed new possibilities, we were able to use the snow itself as a material for making. 

There was a magic to the woods when the snow came, everything was suddenly transformed into a place of extreme wonderment. Piles and clusters of logs and plants poking through the snow became distinct features and sculptural forms themselves.
