Stift

""Stift"" is a work about the handwriting of old people who live in a nursing home. They were asked to write anything they wanted, since the instructions determined that the goal was only about the visual aspects of the handwriting. Because of their age, many had trouble to hold the pen, and their effort to make a pretty letter became visible. However, I chose to work with old people also because of the content: what messages would these people write, at the end of their lives? This project was made during the Seminar ""Alphasphäre"", with Prof. Andreas Henrich, Sommersemester 2010.
