Words Beyond Walls explores how presentation shapes perception by transforming overlooked writing from Oslo's walls into "poetry". Inspired by McLuhan's "The Medium is the Message," the project collects short, seemingly random messages, that often goes unnoticed.

These texts are then sequenced by theme and rhythm to suggest new meanings, accompanied by photography that echoes their original environments. Further the book itself becomes part of the experiment, with a cover that mixes historical references with vibrant color and binding techniques that defy genre expectations.

What emerges from this might be complete nonsense or something deeper. The goal is simply to ask what makes a book feel serious, poetic, or important—and how those perceptions can shift simply through how we frame and present the work.
