I was poking around the website of Norwegian-American artist Brit Hammer and became more than a little intrigued by the close-up shots of frescos she creates in cement. I want to reach into the screen and touch the beautiful texture. Doesn’t it feel like you are on the surface of a planet covered in icy, colourful grooves and craters? To create her vibrant frescos, Brit uses cement mortar powder, water and pigments which forces her to work quickly as the materials are fast drying (unlike traditional plaster frescos). I’m thinking Brit could start a side business of selling detail photographs of her beautiful work. Maybe even add some tiny space figures to the shots? I’m picturing a vintage silver astronaut. Hmmm…
