Karin Sander Wallpiece / Wandstück, 2014
Polished wall paint
180 x 540 cm
Karin Sander's Wallpieces are created by removing an extremely thin layer of paint with all its irregularities, about one-tenth of a millimeter thick, from the wall surface. By sanding the wall down numerous times using increasingly fine sandpaper, the wall beneath — which is covered with emulsion paint — is polished to a high gloss.
