Notes

Line is Marx's experiential instrument, whether thinly splicing paper or intuitively scribing with paint, her practice always comes back to the line as a guiding tool. She uses the perspective of line to map spatial experience and mark the middle ground between Point A and Point B: from object to consciousness. 

Provenance

Kindly donated by the Artist and WHATIFTHEWORLD, Cape Town.
