The Winter Projects are an accumulation of twenty-one small objects and books. They were created annually over a period of 20 years, resulting in an accumulated collection of 21 objects. Each Winter Project is a multiple made in an edition of 60 or 70. The size of the edition was determined by;

the number of people with whom I had professional or personal communication
the materials available
my tenacity in making each of the objects

The creative challenge was to transform mundane bits and pieces into small visual object/poems. I thought of each project as an act of imagination with a Fluxus “do it yourself” aesthetic. In retrospect I see that the Winter Projects are reflections of my larger studio projects and events in my life. Together, they comprise a kind of autobiography by object. - Harriet Bart
