MISPLACEMENT MANUAL, 2024

PUBLICATION
Misplacement Manual emerged as a series of space—related practices aimed for the body. By performing them individually or collectively, one can (re)claim their presence in an alien environment or better connect to a domestic space.
“Let the cat in the house first” practice is based on a Slavic superstition that before moving into a new house, you should let the cat go in. Due to its sensitivity towards the good and bad spirits that inhabit the house, the cat can befriend them and ensure a safe life for humans.
Anastasia Albokrinova performed the practice herself and took graphic notes of the ‘good’ and ‘bad vibe’ objects and activities occuring in each room of the apartment. The sequence of this practice you can see in the thermalprint book.
