Kunstverein New Jörg, Vienna, 2017

Untitled (Turmeric) are 15 meters of cotton muslin dyed with turmeric. Because the coloring agents of turmeric are reactive to sun light, the textile changed its color progressively over the runtime of the exhibition. This work was installed next to Untitled (convey Regular, convey Regular Italic) which displays some of my writings on reading materials by other authors and artists, Alison Knowles, Gertrude Stein, Friederike Mayröcker, Yoko Ono, Tavi Gevinson, and Hannah Black, discussing the processes of reading, writing, and publishing. The used typefaces are convey Regular and Regular Italic by Gabriele Lenz.
