Anchor

Swizerland
April 2023During a train journey from St. Moritz to Zermatt, across the Alps
, I wrote continuously for eight hours.
Not to record the trip in a text, but to internalize my observations and reflections through writing.
The notes were not meant to ever be read back. After I wrote them, they lost their importance.

Anchor is related to the works Streams (2022) and Short-term memory (2019).
