Om-
Sorg
En
Kris

(2024)
Oslofjordtriennalen, Lågøya

For the Oslofjord Triennale I produced a work about care as an intention that can generate both warmth and discord. About love and sorrow. And about the crisis as a decisive point that holds the potential for both disaster and healing. 

Sculpture, text, and choreography together tell a story about the split as a beginning; about how a cell separates and becomes two, how the sea breaks and becomes land, how nature turns into culture and life ends and death takes over. But also further, about shifting of directions and repair.

The work consists of three parts: a sculptural installation, a text risoprinted on a poster, and a performance.

• Spine - Wood from load-bearing wall in our house, stone from Groruddalen
• Vertebrates - Raku-fired Ceramics
• The Swan - Raku-fired ceramics
• Placenta - Stone from Suomenlinna in the Baltic Sea
• The sea gives me anxiety - Piece of plastic found in the sea outside Flekkefjord, wood from our house
• Om- Sorg en Kris - Blanket from when Ivar was a baby, thread, various collected materials from Lågøya, paving stones
from Berlin
• Poster - Riso print 2 + 1 color, text and image Sara Rönnbäck.
