Victoria Reichelt speaks to the imaginative possibilities in the collapse of that distinction. She places wild animals in the language-rich and written word-driven archive, within the library as the repository of human knowledge. In so doing she acknowledges the endangered status of both as a result of technological and environmental advances, and points up the significant gaps in our rationalist view of the world.” Louise Martin Chew 2013

Victoria joined other artists in 2008 for “Bibliomania: The Bookshelf Portrait Project“, Linden Centre for
—-Contemporary Arts – work was based on photographs of book shelves.
