Marit Wolters (*1985) studied Sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts Dresden and the University of Applied Arts Vienna. In 2017 she was a fellow at the Bauhaus Dessau. Her work has been exhibited internationally, including in Brno, Barcelona, Vienna, and New York. In her sculptural investigations, she engages closely with architectural forms and materials and their processes of transformation.

The edition Outdoors is based on the floor plan of the German Pavilion designed by Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich for the 1929 Barcelona International Exposition. Air can circulate freely through the open structure, connecting exterior and interior space. The process of aluminium casting takes up these flowing movements of material and translates them into an abstract formal language. The in-front and behind of the sculpture remain interwoven through its lattice-like structure.
