In 1986 and shortly after having discovered sulphur flour as artistic material, Ingeborg Lüscher and her daughter Una take a trip to the volcanic Solfatara crater in the region of Naples in Italy. The gas and steam fumaroles with their sulphurous vapors and minerals would enrich her thoughts and her artistic experience around the new and extraordinary natural substance.
