Physical description [en]

The exhibition, AND now she walks on out / È Uscita, presented the work of Giulia Essyad and Carmen Ayala Marín. The opening launched RING's second publication, a text intervention and a poem commissioned as part of the exhibition from artist, researcher, and writer Cassandra Troyan: "To Threaten the Order of the House."

The exhibition starts from a selection of carpets hanging on the walls of K. Jacobssons Inredning & Auktion. Crafted in Iran before the 1979 revolution, they represent naked women in positions of submission or passivity, some carrying remnants of sexualized exoticism. Recently, discussions in the Swedish parliament addressing sex workers' right called upon nationals values to reinstitute criminalization of the practice of sex work. Can we attune to the sound of a violent female body? Revolting, revolutionary aggressive limbs moved by expectations of care and tenderness, infinitely holding brutality?

Hairs falls in meshes, their soft anticlimactic sound, each hair severed, straight cut,

The movement of your fragile wrist as you grab a collar.

Slaps, again, and more, an acid sound against a cheek repeated until it invades your stomach. A knife in a pig, squish.

The clap of your heels on a silent night.

The clamor rising from the street, thousands of womxn walking for the independence of their body.
