Raquel Maulwurf

Raquel Maulwurf (Madrid, 1975) developed the installation 'The Carbon War Room' especially for the Gemeentemuseum. It arose from the desire to physically create the depth that is evoked in her charcoal drawings in three-dimensions. By working with a very large format and creating wall drawings that cover several walls, she previously captured the feeling of 'walking into a drawing'. This third dimension was also added literally from the moment she began scratching the museum board she uses for her drawings with a box cutter. The installation in the museum?s Projects Gallery enables Maulwurf to take the final step. Exhibition: Gemeentemuseum, The Hague, The Netherlands (18.03.-18.06.2017).
