The commission The Kiila Feminist Archive / The Wedge: Archive-as-Artwork deals with an archive-as-artwork, which is dedicated to the intersection of feminist and decolonial perspectives. Henriksson’s table presented a selection of books by the writers Tyyne Maija Salminen, Elvi Sinervo, Iris Uurto and Katri Vala, each member of the Kiila association in the 1930s; copies of memo documents from the Kiila archive; and linocut prints illustrating Henriksson’s translations from pages of the books are dispersed throughout the exhibition space. As an active current member of Kiila, Henriksson continues re-tracing, translating and subjectively situating these feminist orientations through the fiction writing – novels, poems and short stories – of the organisation’s founding female members. 

Commissioned under the topic Inclusive Strategies, presented as part of the exhibition and public program:
