Drums

Marie Lund - Drums
Artist's book designed by Åbäke, based on Danish artist Marie Lund's first institutional solo exhibition.
Drums, which follows Marie Lund's exhibition at Museo Marino Marini in Florence, is acutely attentive to things that aren't present. A spectrum of materials is employed to evoke, represent, and reflect these missing objects—concrete, plasters, and acrylic glass are cast after, wrapped around, shaped along them. The act of modeling and copying is a craft, and the human imprint in such activities is intentionally betrayed: signs left by the working hands are visible. The works bears the signs of their own process through little, telling imperfections on their skin. Not unlike fossils, these works look like memory drivers.
Published on the occasion of the eponymous exhibition at Museo Marino Marini, Florence, in 2014.
Born 1976 in Hundested, Denmark, Marie Lund lives and works in London. Her work has been shown extensively, in solo shows among other at Proyectos Monclova, Mexico City, Croy Nielsen, Berlin, Laura Bartlett Gallery, London, and IMO Projects, Copenhagen, and in group shows at Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit, Sorø Kunstmuseum, Denmark, CCA Wattis, San Francisco, Cologne Kunstverein, Kunsthalle Mulhouse, etc.
