Philosophy 1992-1996 site – specific installation

At her first exhibition at the Centre Pasqu’Art in Bienne in 1992 she devoted three adjacent walls to her own calligraphy of the first eighteen chapters of Lao Tse's Tao Te Ching; The following year saw an ensuing part of the text broken up into forty rectangular panels, each placed on two rods set in the wall and thus theoretically interchangeable: an urge to point up a breaking-free from the founding text. Some years later, in 1996, she broke down the rest of Lao Tse's 81 chapters into fragments spread over the floor: the text, whose title is often translated as The Way and Its Power, serves here as basis, medium and guide.
