Daniel Göttin Oaxaca Tape


Daniel Göttin: Oaxaca Tape

Biblioteca Andrés Henestrosa
Porfirio Díaz 115, Centro
Oaxaca, México, CP 68000

Daniel Göttin (b. 1959, Basel, Switzerland) creates temporary, site-specific interventions that examine the subjective nature of perception. His installations, often consisting of common industrial materials, such as tape, carpet, and paint, playfully respond to the specific characteristics of an architectural site and activate the viewer’s relationship to it. Oaxaca Tape is part of an ongoing series of extensive environmental “paintings” utilizing different types of fabric and aluminum tape to cover the walls, floor, and ceiling of a given space.
