Maud Cotter, a solution is in the room, Coracle Press, Ireland, 2017, ed. 100


Cotter is an Irish artist based in Cork and she works across media including installation art, drawing, sculpture and landscape art. During the same year that this work was published Cotter also had an exhibition of 3 of her sculptural pieces with the same title at the Wandesford Quay Gallery in Cork. Coracle press' description of this work reads as follows: "...a sculpture splayed out to a length of two metres on the floor when activated, using one letter of its title per panel 9 x 9 x 4 cm. A veritable jack-in-box." From this quote and Cotter's larger practice this work has to be seen within her broader sculptural practice and as such, a printed matter sculpture in its own right.

26 single-sided pages, individually 3" x 3", and when unfolded 6ft 6inches.
