WALLPAPERING
Hanging your world on the walls.
Transforming everything into wallpaper. Clippings, ribbons, colored and handmade papers, portions of artwork, texts, photographs, found objects.
Painting the walls with your memories. Moments like polaroids covering your mind and your home.
What you are actually builds the space around you. It comes out from your mind, papers the walls and becomes your everyday reality. Your personal story reflected on those moments, like a mirror of your life.
It’s an accidental short circuit through you, the wallpaper and your space.
Wallpaper as a dress adorning your body;
you and your story as a wallpaper covering your space;
your space as a blank wall to fill with your personal story.
A collage, an assemblage of what you are and what you were creating a new whole.
Giving a new meaning to what looked normal before.
Wallpapering your space.
