‘Not feeling too
cheerful: reclining
figures, facades
and more’
@ carlier | gebauer
—
‘Inverting the
lexicon of
monumental
sculpture to draw
our attention
to absence, and
the physical &
emotional rifts
between people
and things’.
Born:
1961 – Herford, Germany.

Is the Berlin-based
artist's fifth solo with
carlier | gebauer in

‘Her ongoing
engagement with
gaps, interior spaces,
and inner organs
questions the social
body by taking
something away
from it and, in the
words of writer
Deborah Levy,
“allows this absence
to do the talking.”’
