Sumai Yahya - The Bubble
Eighteen young authors have brought nineteenth-century artefacts from the Rijksmuseum to life. They have taken inspiration from the question: what do you see when you look at these objects with an eye for invisible labour? Sumai Yahya gives us a look at an Etruscan vase made by Manufacture Impériale de Sèvres in 1858. ‘The whole of history, existing of trembling hands and tons of sex, has led to the making of this vase.’
