maritime xmas deco
I played a little bit with shell garlands. Also for the chandeliers. They are beautiful. Simple and maritime. But a lot of work. They are small and fragile. The blue bulbs(?) are from IKEA. And - of course - made from glass - but I fear they made the long way from China across the oceans to Europe. Shame on me to buy it. Usually I try to avoid it.

message in a bottle 2
Yesterday has been a "boring" day on the beach - nothing interesting to find - except!!: a message in a (PLASTIC) bottle from a little girl. She seems to be on vaccation in a tourist resort about 100 km away - but only 6 days ago she send it on tour. I think it is very fast.
The weather was sunny and some wind from north-west. I have to be careful not to enjoy the pure beach without finding anything - not even plastic debris.

25. international coastal cleanup day 2010
ICC - on saturday I went to one of the few beaches around here that is not cleanedup by the municipality daily. 70% is candy and chips, picnic and barbecue. Plastic bottles, tetra pacs, coffee to go. Only a few things were interesting for me to work with. But the next storm is already in action and will provide new flotsam and jetsam.

clean up the world weekend
I have just been registering for "clean up the world weekend" on Sept.17-19, 2010. Don´t know yet where and who is going to participate. But I needed to make a start. This morning I went swimming on a clean and empty beach - the season is ending - and it was so wonderful except for a lot of garbage in the dunes.
So if anybody wants to join - welcome!

dangerous finding 2
At the moment everybody here is afraid searching for amber. There are phosphorus findings in the flotsam and they look very much the same. The remains (and reminders) of german bloody history.

statement
I would like to focus on the plastic problem all around us. Every time I walk on the beach I am at the same time fascinated and frightened about this side by side of nature and plastic. How the sea works on the debris and sometimes you don´t know what is what. The variety of beached items is immense and makes you wonder about their journey and the story behind.
My collages are about environmental awareness. It is so normal for us to be surrounded by plastic. I would like to sharpen the eye for this human footprints on the beach, in the ocean. Doing it with art is a nice way of learning.
For me it is very satisfying to combine the daily walk on the beach with a little cleanup and to recycle the plastic litter into art.

dangerous finding
Yesterday I found an insulin pen from Danmark in the flotsam. Dangerous for the diabetic who lost it and for the feet to walk on the beach.

message in a bottle
Today I found a message in a bottle!! Not from Kevin Costner - but from a place some 15km to the east. A "Happy New Year 2010" was inside.
