The project "Farben der Stadt" is a playful exploration of the process of extracting colors from natural raw materials. The result is a catalog that presents a wide variety of colors obtained and describes the entire work process. In the course of the process, many different experiments were carried out to achieve the right color and consistency.
The work process began with a trip to a forest in Dresden, where a wide variety of colored materials such as mushrooms, moss and old bark were collected. These were later crushed, fragmented and selected to obtain individual color extracts. These were presented on individual pieces of paper and later collected in individual test tubes.
this project was created in collaboration with Paulus Donath, Ole Müller and Karl Herrmann in 2022
