Processing the plants, dyes and paper pulp further

Processing the plants, dyes and paper pulp further on, during my residence stay. I was looking for special structures, native plants, silence atmosphere, quiet mood and smells of the surrounding. I was not disappointed! Which all together brought me in a certain state of delay, which gave me space in the thinking mind. @hoorneboeg #retreat #nature #artinresidence #placetocomeback #abstractart #naturalart #sustainableart #paperpulp #naturaldye #naturalpigment

Odorless chamomile as follow up of the Forgotten seeds project. In this project I made different paper artworks with native Dutch plants. I want to share my concern af lack of biodiversity in our environment. Strong plants give more flowers, and attracts more bees. #biologicalseeds #biodiversity #inheemseplanten #nativeplants #biodiversity #wildbees #forgottenseeds #paperart #naturalart #naturedesign
