Mar Arza

Castelló de la Plana, Castelló, 1976

Mar Arza is a sculptor of words, which are carefully unstitched from their original stories to weave new conceptual, verbal and plastic meanings; through this non-writing she rewrites manipulated books in order to achieve an artistic lyricism. Her career comprises a debate around words and their sensitive and material dimension, she chooses pages from books at random, meticulously dissects texts and phrases or emphasizes words that take on a sculptural form.
