Grace Ndiritu:
COVERSLUT x Bergen Kunsthall
✍️
Cold Nordic professionalism will most likely never disappear, but DIY is striving to catch up.
I was amazed that any one voice could be heard in the vast polyphony of pages to be read, and felt freshly proud of the small amount of my own books that I had sold, considering the competition.

MINIMART #2 @ Bergen Kunsthall
FROM THE MAGAZINE
Sometime in the 90’s, we bought our first riso machine and became a little bit like the alternative printer in town
I never have my name on the cover, so that the focus is on what’s inside the book rather than on me as a person.

MINIMART #1 @ Bergen Kunsthall
Det slår meg at jeg forholder meg til bøkene som vi forholder oss til mennesker på datingapper. Ville jeg lagt merke til mine egne bøker?
