In the forest by Lake Eggelats in Norrbotten in northern Sweden there is an old airstrip for herbicide planes. The forests around the airstrip were meticulously sprayed with Hormoslyr in the 1950’s and 60’s to eliminate birch. In this drawing performance I follow the border between the airstrip and the surrounding forest and document everything that lies on this border. The art work is a way of visualising a border but also a way of re-locating a place through the act of drawing. Through this work I want to draw attention to a forgotten history that up to this day has large effects on the landscape.
