This book focuses on the sculptor Katharina Fitz’s major installation ‘When Seams Become Audible’.

Fitz’s work is brilliantly unpacked by Sarah Tutt’s insightful writing where she demonstrates how the artist’s work and process are inseparable and exposes its conceptual and poetic resonants.

Jennifer Higgie’s contribution connects the artist’s early photographic practice with her current engagement with sculpture, while relating it’s position within art history.

Emma Cocker’s insightful interview explores the artist’s working methods and how Fitz investigates the limits of materials, how photography has informed her practice and where the boundaries between the process and the finished artwork lie.

These essays reveal the intent and meaning embedded in the work of Katharina Fitz and, alongside a series of images of details, installations and artworks in transition, provide a lens by which to observe the material world. Fitz’s work acts as a reminder of the need for humans to remain connected to process and materiality in a world facing profound change, a world where the gap in our understanding between product and production becomes ever wider.
