Artwork
For Hedi Schon, the topic of “abundance” is closely linked to an intact cycle. Nature can only produce abundance if all necessary components are sufficiently and healthily present. Water is a central component of nature.
The glass installation shows the path of rainwater from the gutter to the cistern.
