keep your body temperature at an optimal level
The artwork "Blanket" is an installation comprising a large "quilt" measuring 6x8 meters and an aromatic diffuser. Crafted by the author, the "quilt" is meticulously hand-made using an alternative photographic process known as cyanotype, resulting in images imprinted onto the fabric. The canvas portrays elements such as grass, both artificial and real flowers, earth, and leaves, all forming a cohesive panel spanning 6x8 meters. These images are sourced from documentary photographs taken at burial sites and processed using the Stable Diffusion Inpaint neural network.
The fabric undergoes equal exposure to sunlight, followed by washing and assembly into a duvet cover, which is then filled with real blankets. The back of the duvet cover features an image of the earth printed onto it. The installation itself consists of the quilt laid out on the floor, covering the author, while a distinct aroma fills the room. Warm-toned ceiling lighting mimics sunlight, creating an inviting atmosphere. Viewers are encouraged to lie down on the floor and wrap themselves in the heavy blanket, immersing themselves fully in the sensory experience.
