Schlachtensee is perhaps the closest place to home where can get a sentiment of nature, or Earth. The beauty of the snow whitened landscape is the same than the beauty of the white canvas. All the options. The new year. A landscape of rather sharp contrasts before and after and within. The lines of thought are the dark parts; the light is scarce and vast at the same time: it is amplified by the snow. The coloring of the sky is typical for a winter here, it isn’t a summer sky. But it is also an opposition of material… on the one hand the different states of matter of water and the organic material of fatty wax… the longing to survive and to preserve one’s energy during the hostile winter cold.
