Planetary Intimacies – both an artist name and a field research project – explores new ways of accessing the Anthropocene with installation-based landscape painting and experimental cartography. Planetary Intimacies combines painting and photography.
Translucent polyester as a carrier material allows for transparency and opacity. Color not only serves to create what is visible, but also to hide it. By applying light-sensitive silver emulsion, moments of melting ice are exposed to the prepared surface. This process captures the dynamism and fragility of disappearing glacial landscapes – in this case the glaciers of Iceland.
