Ephemeral Drawings 1978-1982

Installations with materials that dissolve (plaster, ash dust) or melt (ice) over time. Drawings on asphalt, on paths covered with grass, on canvases on the ground that dissolve over time due to wind, rain, growing grass and passersby and vehicles passing over them. The photos document the process of the dissolution in the following weeks.
