In their first collaborative project, the Turkish-German writer Gizem Arici and Canadian-Danish artist and publisher Of Scorpions/Nils Blishen are issuing the poetry zine 12: a collection of twelve poems widely inspired by this number ranging from the tarot card The Hanged Man (XII) over the Gregorian calendar to human pairs of ribs.

For the launch of the zine, each poem will be accompanied by a product blurring the lines between art and functional everyday objects. For these products, the range of artists and contributors drew inspiration from a pre-assigned poem written.

120 minutes after opening, select poems will be read.

All pieces as well as a limited number of zines will be for sale during the event.
