Cornelia Blatter
10 letters from Furka Pass | 10 Briefe vom Furkapass

Memories of the Furka Pass and its winding mountain road date back to Cornelia Blatter’s childhood summers, when her family would drive over the pass on their way to Alpine vacations. The summit always held a sense of solitude. In 1997, she returned for a ten-day stay at Furkablick as part of Furk’Art, where she wrote letters to lost loved ones—some deceased, others who had drifted away—and released them on balloons. Their destination remains unknown. Only the photos endure.
