Alongside the publication and exhibition –including the words and works of Elena Ailes, Benjamin Krusling, Aryana Minai, Maximus Oppenheimer, Mattea Perrotta, Mayra A. Rodriguez Castro + Bitsy Knox, Albert Samreth, Selma Selman, and Hamza Walker– Schoorl created two temporal wall poems as well as a choreography of cicada shells and the left over, steel cut-outs used from the Zzz Sss wall poem, both referring to monotone sounds easily evoked in their absence through their cases (language and armor).

Priority Mail centers around a recent correspondence between Timo Fahler and Lara Schoorl. Over the course of two months, Fahler sent painted envelopes from Los Angeles to Schoorl in Amsterdam daily; together the envelopes add up to one large image. Meanwhile, Schoorl wrote an essay that she cut up into card-size pieces to fit the envelopes before anyone could read it forming both works into one edition of 55. Read the full press release here.
