The Mark on the Wall

Ane Thon Knutsen

Installation

2019

Oslo, Norway

This installation, exhibited in January 2019 at Overlyssalen, Kunstnernes Hus, features 1,837 letterpress prints on newsprint, presenting the entirety of "The Mark on the Wall," a short story written and printed by Virginia Woolf herself. The work reflects Woolf's unique typesetting process, a skill she was learning as she crafted this story. The artist explores Woolf's potential adjustments in wording, as she might have altered lines to perfect both form and content—a testament to Woolf’s meticulous engagement with both language and print aesthetics.
