Artist Sonja Thomsen believes that wonder is paramount to imagine post-patriarchal futures. Thomsen’s first publication with Poor Farm Press, You will find it where it is: a reader,  is a meditation to move our locus of attention. 


The layered book of photographs creates space and redacts gendered histories of knowledge to make room for new discoveries. Polishing her feminist lens, Thomsen intercepts the timelines of nineteenth century writer, Margaret Fuller; twentieth century photographer, Lucia Moholy; and twenty-first century conceptual artist, Maria Nordman among others. 


This wondrous artist book serves as a catalyst and declaration of Thomsen’s iterative practice where time and light are material and metaphor.
