Pre-existing wall
Encountering the freshly remodeled exhibition space, the artist's reaction is radical: she transforms it to its previous state. This is not an act of restoration, but can be seen as an analytical gesture. The artist excises the vertical plane and brings it into a horizontal position, thereby making the felled walls into transitional objects that fester communication between floor, ceiling and the other walls.
