Letterbuildings

Edition: 1
In Letterbuildings Markus Mai tries to explain his (secret) undertakings to his son.
Mai chose two sculptures that emerged at the same time and for similar reasons and shows their history in reverse order. A decayed and destroyed collection of wooden boards develops into a 3-dimensional word, left into the nature, and from there the story goes back to a collection of wooden planks that are waiting to be processed.
