Grindelwald Forest / Switzerland

«We love to provoke reactions.
Only doing so, the work can have a value.»
Vincenzo Sponga

— During the past winter a snowstorm had devastated the woods. Load of trees were laying, inanimate, covering the ground. We had to do something, we had to recreate the lost wood, or rather, redraw it according to everyone’s imagination.
Thus we decided to give people the most congenial tools: enormous pencils made from fallen trunks, taken in the forest, cut to size, sharpened and equipped with a “lead”.
