This eponymous publication brings together an extended version of the exhibition text, three scripts that were intended to provide the basis for a video work but never developed as such, and a short story performed at a reading, along with selected production photos and installation views. Exploring the narrative potential of broken sculptures for still life paintings, or of a barista’s working day for a dragonheavy draft of fantasy, the texts give a keyed-up voice to an aging hipster-self, realizing that other forces grew in the dark while they were busy hurting, healing, climbing. The material shares a fumbling approach to fiction and non-fiction, presenting an honest but humorous portrayal of the tension between the outside world and the inner life of a person or an artist in particular.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCopublished by Simian.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 21 July 2026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePage count:\u003c\/strong\u003e 176\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Height 191 mm; Width 114 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sternberg Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9781915609748\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Peter Wächtler","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":50128173072634,"sku":"9781915609748","price":20.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/9781915609748.jpg?v=1787053321","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/crackers-9781915609748","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
