'F' or '?'

By Katy Beinart 2012
In the search for their great-great-grandfather Nicholaus Filaratoff in St Petersburg, the artists drew a blank, so they marked the pavement with an 'F' or '?' in salt, also the alchemical symbol for salt. A performative action by Katy and Rebecca Beinart documented in a series of black and white prints.
