On the 29th of December, at Nida Art Colony's temporary project space Kiosk Marlaina Read (AU) presented her installation Forest

The artist installed a frame with two textile pieces, that were dyed with moss and bark. On one of them Marlaina cut out a special generated unicode with the laser cut. The artist is planning to continue adding the textile pieces to the exhibition, at the end of the month sewing all the pieces into a dress and do a performance.  

‘I am trying to make sense of a forest. Not a particular forest, but an idea of a forest. I want to make a monument to a forest. With hidden symbols, colours, smells. 
I started with an image of a dust of snow on a tree. The snow is impermanent. Like a forest. Like any language I use to describe it. 
A forest is vast. My monument is simple, contained. Personal. Domestic. A forest is contained. I am vast.’
