Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Philosopher of her own Ruin at the Bonner Kunstverein, 23 February–27 July, 2025. Curated by Alan Longino and featuring the work of Dusti Bongé, Rosemarie Castoro, Anna Bella Geiger, Susan Hiller, Ishiuchi Miyako, Lisa Robertson, Bertram Schmiterlöw, Sydney Schrader, Linda Semadeni and Tokiwa Toyoko.

“This exhibition and its attendant research follow the path of an entity, once a person, who passed from a moment of hypervisibility into invisibility at a critical juncture in their life. It was in this later moment of life, when their body had undergone a previously unknown transformation, that a new freedom came to them. This new freedom then allowed an entirely novel path of self-realization to occur.”—Alan Longino
