The exhibitions Symbiotic Stories by Jakob Oredsson and Surfacing Solids by Petrine Vinje have their final opening day and we invite to two artist talks in the exhibitions.
Artist, architect and scenographer, Jakob Oredsson, in conversation with choreographer Ingri Fiksdal. The conversation will engage with the practices part of developing and realising the exhibition, how they relate to the fields of scenography and choreography, as well as Object-Oriented Ontology.
Artist Petrine Vinje in conversation with art and architecture historian Malin Graesse. Taking a starting point in the exhibitions newly made sculptures and installations, where the artificial composite material Solid Surfaces (often refered to as Corian®) is figurating. Engaging in this material, formal choices, and process-philosophical questions, the conversation will seek to understand various aspects of the works in the exhibition, and how they can be read in future situations.
The conversations will be held in Norwegian.
