​

Rivers: mapped or not is a new body of work by Maísa Stolz, currently in development in her Oxfordshire studio.

​

The series marks a transition from figurative sculpture towards abstraction, where discarded paper becomes a material language in its own right. Built from newspapers and egg boxes mainly, the works explore movement, texture, erosion and the uncertain paths that matter can take.

​

The river appears not as an image to be represented, but as a force. It suggests direction, interruption, memory and change. Some paths are visible. Others are buried within the surface.

​

In this series, paper is broken down, softened, layered and pressed until it becomes almost geological. The works sit between sculpture, relief and surface, carrying traces of touch, time and transformation.

​

New works from this series are currently being developed in the studio. Early enquiries are welcome. 

​

​More works from this series will be released soon.
