My tutor suggested I look at her work to research ideas into Alchemy.

In my research of this artist, I learned that her work exists at the interstices of time, alchemy, and natural materials. It can also be seen as an event when these works are made, almost as Pollock’s drip painting technique. She applies the liver of sulfur to make marks but also shows how it continues to interact. Documentation is in the form of film during the process. She works with the unpredictable effects of natural elements and has become known for her chemical paintings that change with the atmosphere. This method can be seen as a gesture toward indeterminacy and embracing the chance positioning of work. Elements that come to place with the use of materials particularly susceptible to weather and indoor atmosphere, the unpredictability of birds, the gradual erosion of water, and the use of inherently unstable substances such as acetone, mercury, and sulfur.
I wonder in which way I could compare it with making spore prints – thinking about a natural material which reacts to the surface it is placed on?
Materials
Her choice of materials is silver and sulfur, which are alchemical elements and were chosen for the volatility. The liver of sulfur is used to make random marks which will change over time. This process will start producing effects similar to changes caused by heating metal. Within minutes turquoise, blue, amber and gold appear. Over time, it will change to burnt umber and grey; after months or even years, areas of black emerge. One becomes very aware of the unpredictability of this process. These random marks are the only evidence of a touch of the hand, as the chemical doesn’t retain brush strokes. The amount or quantity affects the work: black comes up faster if the solution is dense, yet if it pools, ashy white Natural elements such as fire and rain can also influence the work. The works will sweat with rain—drip lines become visible, pouring from denser pools. Aspects of fire and water are evident in her piece called Sign.
