For Abrieb I_Enthüllung (Abrasion I_Unveil-
ing), Jeewi Lee removed a rectangular shape from the
wall of an exhibition space, layer by layer. First, she
skimmed the paint and laid the worn white sheet on the
floor in front of her intervention. Only then did she peel
off the wallpaper and let it hang down, still connected
to the wall. The dimensions of the exposed bare surface
corresponded to the size of a window that had been
bricked up to create more exhibition space. The artist
symbolically opened it again
