What is recycling good for, asks Mika Rottenberg at Hauser & Wirth Menorca

‘Video is light and plastic is fossil fuel, which is ancient light trapped in oil, but it could not get back to the earth and complete the cycle. So making it into a lamp is a way to metaphorically release the light.’

Anna Maria Maiolino: ‘My body speaks to me and I’ve been listening to it since I was really young’

‘There's a huge age gap between me and Picasso, and you have to bear in mind the gender difference. That being said, we share a deep curiosity about the exercise of freedom and the use of experimentation. We use different techniques for the creation of our artworks in an effort to renew our language.’
