The Tunisian-Russian artist Nadia Kaabi-Linke deals with conceptual and material relationships. What kinds of combinations of fabrics, media, and signs make sense, in either a conciliatory or an upsetting way? Matter Matters outlines certain constellations of meaning and thematic concepts. Register, diagram, material details, and excerpts from the artist s work journal help to create temporal, physical, and conceptual contexts. A laboratory notebook that pursues a visual grammar of things.
