In her performances and installations, Tunisian-Russian artist Nadia Kaabi-Linke (born 1978) explores material relationships by combining different kinds of fabrics, drawing utensils, printing techniques and other media.

Using methods similar to a criminal investigator, Tunisian artist Nadia Kaabi-Linke (born 1978) traces the scratches, bumps, bullet holes, graffiti and bodily secretions left on walls, bus stops and train stations. Transferring them to paper and objects, Kaabi-Linke records the remnants of violence or vandalism alongside the rarely unnoticed clues of human existence, creating works of fascinating delicacy.
