Paper Artwork at Nooitgedacht Glacial Pavings

This application is to produce a series of hand-made paper sheets at Nooitgedacht. The paper is made from locally sourced plants (reeds - Typha capensis) and water from the nearby Vaal river and will be made in situ. The paper will be laid onto the rock to dry. Gentle pressure is applied by hand to the paper, in order to imprint the rock markings into the wet paper surface. The paper will be displayed in the Curator's Special Project, entitled Mnemonic, at the 18th International Venice Biennale, in May 2023.
