For every work she received, Vlatka sent to each artist a collage from the series she was making while in residence in Venice, using images of the city she has taken on her daily walks. All the artworks travelled to Venice and back via informal transport networks; in bags and suitcases of friends, acquaintances, and sometimes strangers enlisted as couriers for the project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBreaking the frame of the traditional exhibition catalogue, the publication mirrors the evolving nature of the work through a combination of documentation, dialogue, and reflections on the process.
