Cold Origami

‘Cold Origami’ refers to the power of line. Thinking as a drawer, the line dictates the shape of thought for Lotte Geeven (1980). In this exhibition with new large-scale drawings and installations; the line folds an interior, breaks a grand mountain panorama and maps routes through strange cities and foreign landscapes. In its’ ambiguous character it explores the mechanism of memory of another place at another moment.
All the works trace back to ‘Hotel Insomnia’; an ongoing project started in 2007. This project unfolds around a model of an imaginary hotel and takes shape in a series of installations, drawings and texts. The growing domain of the Hotel offers a temporary refuge for fleeting observations that hide in the lee of the interior.
