The Boon Boon Rune gives exponentially to the receiver and back to the giver. This project seeks answers on how we may offer/elicit care in the Anthropocene, it explores principles of giving, receiving, offering, refusing, taking, leaving. The pieces in this work are informed by the texts of Donna Haraway, Anna Tsing, Peter Slotterdjik's Bubbles, The writings of Alfred Starr Hamilton, Kathryn Yusoff, and others. The Boon Boon Rune asks, in times of mass extraction, what does giving look like?

A jealous oasis looks out to a jealous desert, returning its gaze. Each imagined place contains what the other covets, though possession of these desired qualities would unravel the basis of their existence.
