Iva Gobić - Kanal Ri

The works of Iva Gobic, an artist from Rijeka, feature paper as the main means of expression. While in her restoration work Gobic seeks to cease and decrease the processes of paper decay, in her artistic work she actually initiates and accelerates them thus transforming them into a positive process of materialization of new works. She often exposes paper to different natural effects such as sunlight or seawater.
In her work Gobic also uses books as art forms, in a way that she applies changes to existing books or uses advertising brochures, magazines and discarded books as raw materials in creation of new objects.
