Mona Mayer is a designer, artist and curator based in Karlsruhe, Germany

A whimsical drawing of a sun with a human face, surrounded by petal-like shapes and a sprouting flower above. I found the illustration in a book with poems be Josef Eichendorff, the title is 'Wanderlieder'. I recently read one of them out loud on top of a hill in the woods, close where my parents live. I read it out to the valley opening up in front of me, for the people following their daily live-routines down there. It’s a romantic gesture, Joseph Eichendorff was a romantic poet. I will add the name of the artist who draw the little flower sun soon.
