Shelagh Atkinson ‘Dig : an excavation of mine ‘

Nicolet Boots ‘Journal Cups‘
Fragments from a diary, pieces of paper filled with words and memories, of days lived and thoughts thought, made into cups, the blue ink of the handwriting barely visible,
the paper covered in fine plaster and bee wax,
a container, a silent reminder of the days lived, and the days ahead.

Nicolet Boots works with a variety of materials and especially loves to work with bee-wax and oil
paint. Her two-dimensional works are in constant dialogue with her three-dimensional works.
Together the artworks unfold a sensitive, tactile and multi layered view of the natural world, and
us, as human beings, being part of it.
