ABOUT
ABOUT
Karin Lind works with sculptural matters through different media, from sculpture, objects, photography and drawing to installations in landscape scales. She deals with sculpture as a situation taking place in the world, rather than sculpture as a singular, specific object. Working her way through various materials and spaces, she seeks new encounters between material and immateriality, paying as much attention to the context as the material itself. Her sculpture-interventions challenge the automatic points-of-view, expanding the idea of perceiving.
