"The things I'm afraid to ask for" by Robin Mientjes is the companion piece to an artwork especially produced to be part of the yearlong experimental exhibition () at House of Foundation. The artwork, a photographic installation, is equal parts therapeutic exercise and creative challenge; a reckoning with deep-seated traumas in the form of an artwork that directly requires submission to those fears.

The artist publication, a "manual" consisting of three small booklets, tackle the rational and understood parts of creating art, while the artwork itself contains only the emotional and felt parts. Together they reveal a multifaceted depiction of trauma, and suggest new ways to learn and feel.

Three loose booklets are contained in a specially made folder in three colors. Please note that these will be sent out randomly.

130 x 195mm, 48 pages, staple bound booklets loose in a folder, first edition of 100, 2023
