The title doubt is my support system embodies Chloé Malloggi’s collaboration process with the mediums paper, sculpture and words. As a site-specific artist she was inspired by the support system that is Vishovgrad — branches holding and supporting one another, she states “I hope my work can take care of someone else’s work”. Leaning into the flexibility of paper and words, she gives her materials space to speak and is informed by her process of daily making, often made up of repetitive gestures as a mantra evocation of words.     

Glueing together paper, adding water to transform into another shape,                                                                                                                                            

action of folding, and unfolding,                                                                                                                                                                                                

the sculptures doubt the same question again and again                                                                                                                                                      

poetry, as a concept of language.
