1, 2, 3, 4, Wild Seeds 3
Edition of 175, 2023
The writing’s ways in relating to four kins are inscribed into the depth of four geological faults in 1, 2, 3, 4. The piece is translated into multiple languages used by ancestors of the kins written about, and communities who hold relationships with the faults. The book marks, alongside with video installation work ས་གཞི་སྔོན་པོ་འགྱུར། (The Earth Turned Green), a position to return forms such as language and perception to relatedness.
