Library consists of rows of glass books arranged in a formal order on metal shelves.
Inside each glass book neatly and exactingly titled in gold lettering are tiny fragments of pulped paper from the book itself. I wanted to know more about this artist's work and when nearly two years later we established contact through email, she kindly sent me some of her writings and photos of her work. What follows in the next few pages are excerpts from Mali Wu's writing , images of her work and writing about her in the last few years. Linda Jaivin's analysis discusses an earlier version of Library in Gnawing Texts, Reaming Words . Mali Wu was born in 1957 in Taipei, Taiwan.
