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.
