From the different theories of hope I have extracted several of its qualities, such as excitement, immersion, slipperiness, and ambiguity. Alongside the theoretical exploration into hopes qualities I have conducted an interview in a Gothenburgian suburb in to hope and earning in 2022, carried out performance work out between 2022–2023,  created as socially interactive work in soap 2021 and  am doing ongoing material-based research. From these materials springs a collection of works under the tittled Hope Is a Soap Is a Rope.
