Description: Together with Posture Editions, Koba De Meutter (b. 1992) creates 'So That Afternoon We Both Made an Empty Circle', a book with visual work that is the result of two recent artist's residences in Mexico. De Meutter combines sculpturally adaptable modules (consisting of metal rods and 'holders') with found material in deliberate actions or chance events, often in public spaces. In the book, photographs of her interventions in Mexico City are combined with a series of drawings she made during her second residence in art centre Casa Wabi. The drawings feature imaginary characters from her memories of her stay in Mexico City - yet they are no less realistic or near.
