LE STUDIO

Graphic Artist Khara Cloutier has designed a book sculpture combining texts from both Paul Elliman’s essay Designed Screens and an interview with artist Marco Maggi, conducted by Museum of Latin American Art’s Assistant Curator Selene Preciado.

Inspired by Elliman’s concept of “the screens (and our) ability to reflect” as well as Maggi’s statement that “saturation is the best way to erase,” she has symbolically utilized materials such as translucent acrylic panels and a glass mirror textured by typography. Each has been screen printed in a codified color palette of red, green and yellow in order to illustrate these narratives as a three dimensional “book art object.”

Rather than actually being read individually, this “book art object” is meant to visually represent the ideas behind the two combined texts.
