'BROWN'
Charcoal (sustainable charcoal by Kawandama hills plantation) dust (no artificial colours) on canvas (wood glue and varnish spray-paint).
75cm x 44,5cm x 3cm
Together with BLACK, WHITE and PINK this will formed into an installation.
An artwork on surface colour combined with a protest to unnecessary un-equal food distribution around the world and the unhealthy manipulation with food.
Charcoal is in this 'series of work' because it is 'overused' in Malawi for cooking (probably as result of deep poverty) and leads to further deforestation (together with brick burning) as farming did the first large stretch of deforestation and still does.
Using charcoal dust as an art material is not necessary spoiling a heating resource, but transforming an important material into an artwork which meaning would not be there if another material would be used.
