Astrid Schulz displays two images of her award winning Car Park series: they show fragments of or imprints left by cars frozen in the total silence of snow and hover at once between romanticism and apocalypse, abstraction and representation. An imprint of the bonnet of a car left in the snow is juxtaposed with a black car door that has been freed from and at the same time is framed by a blanket of snow; the photographs shown imbue seemingly mundane objects with an ethereal, epic quality, while entering into direct dialogue with the process-based nature of drawing using as its starting point and central component the abstract mark left on a ground.
