Measure-ism

Measure-ism is an exhibition of work by Jenny Wiener, Pushing Print solo prize winner, 2010. Her work often combines intricate technical drawing with layers of silk-screened geometric shapes, her practice revolves around numbers. The units of measurement used to qualify and to quantify, to rate and to grade. Her concern is that we are increasingly reduced to numbers: serial numbers, pin numbers, illogical scorecards, random numbers and units of measurements – measuring everything and nothing. She defines these processes and applies them to whatever she wants – from fairy tales to Renaissance paintings.
