The Dissolving Palette is a series of 25 unique artworks, that have been created as a whole and separated afterward. Using the same ingredients as for the eponymous conceptual dinner, we did in Berlin, she gives autonomy to natural ecosystems and biochemical reactions, stepping away as the sole creating agent. Rather, she is allowing natural and often comestible ingredients to create their own universe of microorganisms, disassociating from the human arrogance that initiated the Anthropocene.
