A collection of works by MacTeld Rullens, a Dutch artist. The work of the walls is made by collecting cardboard boxes, rubbing gently with color and resin, and stacking while closed and hiding inside, like a mouth that is not closed. Despite having a strong relevance to these paintings, he has been working using a sculpture element that rarely used brushes.

This work, which is the first work for the author, includes more than 60 works along with his friends, family, mysterious objects, and travel photos. They are recorded with the same analog camera as if they fill the border between art and everyday, and sometimes a collage photo.

Machteld Rullens (b. 1988, the Hague, Netherlands) gathers cardboard boxes, gently rubs them with color and resin, and stacks them, their flaps agape like unshut mouths or closed, hiding their interiors just so. Full of emptiness, Rullens' debut artist book, presents over sixty of her humdrum wall-works alongside photographs of friends, family, curious objects, and far-off travels. Art and everyday life are documented with the same analogue camera, smudging the line therebetween—if there every was one . Essay by Andrew Berardini.
