Die Liebe höret nimmer auf! (Love never ends!) – Masurian tales of people whose children became refugees

From reconstructed postcards and gravestones, this work tells the story of Masuria, a border region in northern Poland dotted with many lakes. It is a memorial to the region’s displaced populations and derelict heritage.

The sail was sawn from 23 woodcut/monotypes printed on 14 metres of Dacron.

Currently on display in Burlington Gardens, London. More
