On a 15 x 2.75 meter space in the SNG Atrium, the artist has created a spatial collage, visual text, visual poetry, as well as an absolute installation. As usual, it is an offer to tune in, let particularities work within the whole, or to find a way which speaks to you only.

But it is not like the author would not speak; on the contrary, she tries to name the world around her and also around us very precisely. She uses “ordinary” materials and techniques–plaster, natural materials, coins, casts, textile objects, embroidery; she shapes, combines, spins, listens to the inner tension, and tunes everything together, so that the objects find their exact and right places.

The resulting spatial installation Untitled is not an autobiographical confession of the author, but a metaphor of the world and its current experiencing.
