Carry bag

Added on June 19, 2017 by sabine kussmaul.

For each of my 5 runs, which formed a short term project called '5 mile sky', I took a paper bag on the hill with me, with a sharpie marker pen inside. The paper bag was folded and sewn out of newsprint that still had wax on it, as it had been previously used by another artist, Lindsey Piper, to soak off the excess wax off her batik textile surfaces. The wax made the newsprint material resistant to moisture, the sewn seams and folds gave it extra stability. I thought the pre-used material was a good choice of paper, because in the context of environment and natural landscape, all materials are pre-used. 
I also took with me 20 tent pegs, about 150 metres of stretchy rubber bands, a sound recorder and a small camera.
