lines between islands I
A deep mapping of the islands to the farthest west of Norway reflecting upon how a place affected by currents remembers.
Exhibited as an installation in Cric?Crac!2015 and mentioned in "Re-visioning 'North' as an ecosophical context for creative practices", a chapter written by Iain Biggs in Relate North: Culture, Community and Communication.
“Such a polyvocal work requires both particular care in its presentation and time and attention to view and read its multiple components so as to ponder the immersion in the various connectivities and discontinuities its multiple voices evoke. Taken literally, this is a highly specific project in terms of its address to place, but it is also one that for me resonates with quite other and disparate works concerned with the po-soul of communities that ‘go down to the sea in ships’ (Psalm 107:23), from the painter Andrzej Jackowski’s Settlement (1986) to the consistent nautical thread running through the various works of the Scottish artist Will MacLean.”
