Kunstroute rond Gein en Abcoude

 

Along the river Gein—where Piet Mondriaan once captured the Dutch landscape in his early paintings, and where regenerative farmers now work to restore the vitality of the soil—a  series of small canvases, each coated with natural, compostable pigments, are buried in the ground. Left underground for different durations, to become subjects of an unseen collaboration with the soil.

Over time, the earth begins to act upon them. The canvas that spend the shortest duration underground shows only subtle traces—light impressions, gentle shifts in tone. The longest one to be underground is no longer visible at all, fully absorbed into the ground. A documentation of the passing of time of the soil through decay and transformation.
