"Footprints along a coastline" - Wadden Sea Festival Denmark, August 2008 - Ten artists walk and work along the Wadden coast in Denmark. "Footprints along a coastline" is a dynamic international art-on-site project based on considerations about expressions of art, about simplicity, about art in the global environment, about transitorines, life and mortality. Footprints consists of two parts at two locations, Marbaek and Blaavand. From the 16th till the 20th of august ten artists will walk and work along the coast from Marbaek southward. Each artist creates every day a work of art with materials that are present at the site, the tidewater, the beach. In addition to this, every artist can bring small material in a daypack. In five days about fifty works of art will be created from natural elements, leaving the audience with a myriad of works, eventually washed away by the tide or eroded by time and weather.
