WORDS, WORDS
The word is a line which we give meaning to.
The name identifies.
The graphic is a garment of the self.
In my work I clothe the surface with its name.
The golden dots speak of my emotional rythm.
It is a door open onto the poetry of living.
Greta Schödl

Born in Austria, lives and works in Bologna.
Greta Schödl uses marble, by itself a potent affirmation: the stone is precious and used by many, mainly male, sculptors to portray gods, heros and goddesses. Marble blocks signify beauty and grace, which Schödl renders in a personal way with respect to predecessors, by covering its surface with its name repeatedly engraved and golden dots which signify the artist emotional rhythm, true traces of her lived experience
