Margret Wibmer / Relay – Collectors Edition / Limited Edition 12 + 2 AP / Signed and numbered
A work of art ought to be alive like an organism
This quote by Lygia Clark introduces perfectly well Margret Wibmer’s interest in processes that extend beyond the art object and invite the public to interact with the art work.
The Relay Collectors Edition, a beautiful hand made box holding a signed artist book and an original print, translates the underlying processes that shape this multimedia artwork. It involves the owner of the artwork in a process of extending time as well as space through movement and touch, a careful folding and unfolding as in a meditation or a ritual.
Specifications:
