This group of cards and announcements includes a photo stat with a hand written text in which Marlene Dumas writes about her removal to a boat called ‘Casa Cara’ moored in Amstel river. With a witty wordplay on a “removal announcement” she simultaneously refers to a biological removal of her newly born daughter into the outer world.
