BARBARA WILDENBOER, A Brief History of the Multiverse I
Hand-cut paper sculpture with clock mechanism
Barbara Wildenboer’s reimagined maps are ticking timepieces that speak of shifting borders shaped by geopolitics, geology, and climate, while her altered books breathe renewed life into previously prized objects that are disappearing into obsolescence in our digital age.
The artist’s use of old books and maps invites us to consider ways in which humans feel compelled to interpret, fix and navigate the mysteries of life with atlases, maps and scientific devices. Guided by her intuition, the artist herself is on a quest to understand more. Magnetism, gravity and electricity, the celestial orbits and star cycles are all phenomena ‘discovered’ by science, yet their mysteries have not yet been entirely revealed. *

BARBARA WILDENBOER, Encyclopedias
Altered book (hand cut), 65 x 55 cm
Barbara Wildenboer uses a combination of analogue and digital processes to create sculptural artworks that consist of collage, photo and paper-construction as well as digitally animated photographic sculpture. Wildenboer also creates delicately-cut altered books which often contain maps, atlases and scientific subject matter, sometimes using images from the book as central elements to her pieces. Imagery and words become components of the larger designs, as she crafts new visual narratives from the raw material.
