The work's title refers to a Lithuanian folk tale about a sister and her nine brothers who came to rescue her from the beast with nine heads. Technically, it was created by feeding an AI algorithm the weaving structures and images of the goblins from the 15th-century mystical beasts, then translated again to woven structures and woven on a digital jacquard loom.

The artwork will be exhibited at Galleri KRAFT in Bergen until the 2 of June 2024.

Photographer of the work: Runa Halleraker.
