An attempt to capture the permanent possibility of a healing process; to symbolise/express the hope for healing in an upright and upwards-striving, almost plant-like shape. The tarrying, persevering on the one hand – and the expectation, the connection, the good resolution on the other hand.
Shaped only with my hands and without using any tools except the back end of the slab of clay.

A walk through a wintry landscape gave me the inspiration for this painting. I was working from memory, just following my intuition.

I deliberately opted for a fast, sketch-like style of working.
