Artwork Description |The Belgian artist Joëlle Tuerlinckx creates situations in which experiences of
space and time, past and present are made immediate through her intricate network
ofreferences. She combines simple things: found objects and former works
to create an allusive web of memory that is subjected to an ongoing process of
re-recordings and re-adaptations. Categorizations and assessments are continually
undermined; the work remains an open procedure.
Joëlle Tuerlinckx sees the booth at Art Unlimited as adeployment, as a‘Working
Palace’ for the analysis of classical painting. Specifically, the installation deals
with the history ofthe composition beyond visible forms and the represented
motifs whose temporality Tuerlinckx combines with her own work asa‘sculptor.’
Thus, she creates athree-dimensional painting, atheater with multiple decors,
aparallel reality, indeed, of the associative thoughts generated by astill life.
