JOSEFINA TEMIN josefinatemin.com

Ever since it was developed in China around the 2nd Century CE, paper has transformed the way we document, archive and use it. This incredibly versatile material has found its way into every corner of our lives. As it became more economical to produce it made information more accessible to the masses. But far from being a consumption tool, this was also a medium to create. Artist Josefina Temin uses this malleable, sterile material which she calls her second skin in her creations alongside steel. This juxtaposition of elements gives her the flexibility to work on a variety of scales, with each one balancing the other out. A perfect balance between space, light, femininity and masculinity. She is currently based in her hometown of MĂŠxico city.
