you regularly get a card, a small work of art, a unique piece in the mailbox.
In Get Your Sequence, as a large lifetime project, postcards are sent as a form of greeting from the momentary (life) ‘point of view’ of the artist. By regularly receiving the cards, a kind of protocol of her life is created, on refrigerators, on bookshelves or on window sills. They are different from pictures, to be viewed from the front and back and are intended more as a temporary company in everyday life than a monumental pictorial work treated with silk gloves. They are shipped unpacked by mail and can already bear traces of their journey.
Get your Sequence is limited to 42 subscriptions.
I intervene in the space with my works – subtly or directly. My postcards and installations seek to get close to the viewer and open up a dialogue between art and everyday life. With my MailArt I enter the private intimacy of a household.
The format of the postcard is a snapshot, an extracted section of a larger narrative. The cards are tactile, ephemeral and deliberately not monumental. They do not shout out their presence; they end up in letterboxes, disappear in drawers, are forgotten on kitchen tables and are rediscovered at unexpected moments.
My works are carriers of traces, sensations and memories. Not documentation, but an open structure that can be further reflected upon. It is art that lives with people, that creeps into their routines.
Materials such as paper, fabric or object trouvé carry traces and stories within them and encounter precisely placed interventions. By sewing, gluing, painting and folding, I combine different layers with translucent transitions.
I am interested in how moods, feelings and personal experiences can be realised visually and materially. The view changes, perspectives shift, new possibilities become visible. I reflect on the banal with humour and a love of detail. The result is a collection of the everyday.
If I have sparked your interest, write me a short message and get in touch with me.
