I RUINER [IN RUIN], 2021
I RUINER [IN RUIN] was first written for the magazine Tydningen, for their issue "Ark." For this issue writers were invited to work in relation to the entire sheet of paper to be printed (480 x 680 mm). The sheet was not to be cut, but kept intact after printing and folded into sections (170 x 240 mm). I RUINER is a written triangle and composed to play out on four of these sections. Simultaneously apocalyptic and utopian, I RUINER emanates from and refers back to Patriarchy is Already a Ruin and has also continued on into All Stains Fade.
