Collecting pieces from nature is a common activity among people of all ages. In my collecting experience for the project, I realized that nature and natural pigments were the essences of art and aesthetics. | Collecting pieces from nature is a common activity among people of all ages.

As each sample from Ilm Park enters the collection, it is labeled with a corresponding number (according to the order of discovery). In a notebook, I recorded where the leaves and other pieces are coming from. | As each sample from Ilm Park enters the collection, it is labeled with a corresponding number (according to the order of discovery).

I have been going for a walk to Ilm Park in the mornings since I moved to Weimar (April 2021). | |||
During these walks, I realised that I had collected dry branches, leaves and lichen pieces, dry moss etc. that had fallen to the ground from different parts of the Park and brought them home with me. As my collection grows more and more I realised that the way they got together created a completely aesthetic image. I noticed that the combination of these parts creates quite aesthetically and holistically meaningful gatherings. I wanted to create a Digital Color Archive of my walks in the Ilm park with custom shades that belong to leaves and other objects. | |||
