About this exposition

en
The exposition ”Smitte som skapelsemaskin” (Contagion as a creation machine) is based on the artistic project ”Kroppsliturgiske eksperimenter” that explores the boundaries emerging when performing arts and human bodies enter the sacred space of a church. To what extent does the church as a social and architectural environment, shape human conceptions of bodies? What might the history of theology and of the Christian church tell humans about our relationship to our own bodies? The pandemic has put the above questions in a new light: It made the skin a potential carrier of life-threatening infections. At the same time, we suffered the lack of mutual human touch and of physical presence. Caught between the fear of being infected by touch and a hunger for being touched, the project ”Kroppsliturgiske eksperimenter” appears both challenging and attractive. Crisis has produced a desire for new forms of touch, in art and in human life. This contribution to VIS was created in collaboration and dialogue with performer Hanna Barfod, priest, professional singer and research fellow Mathias Gillebo, film photographer and editor Mats Christian Rude Halvorsen and priest Arne Jor.

Expositionen ”Smitte som skapelsemaskin” er basert på det kunstneriske prosjektet Kroppsliturgiske eksperimenter som er en utforskning av kunstens grenser i kirkerom og av kroppens grenser i kirkerom. I hvilken grad er kirken en skaper av kroppsforestillinger? Hva kan kirkehistorien og teologien si oss om vår relasjon til våre egne kropper? Pandemisituasjonen kaster nytt lys over disse spørsmålene: Huden blir smittebærer, berøring blir livsfarlig. Samtidig blir vi bevisst den dype betydningen som berøring og fysisk nærvær har for oss mennesker. Mellom berøringsangst og hudhunger fremstår prosjektet Kroppsliturgiske eksperimenter både tiltrekkende og utfordrende. Krisen tvinger frem et ønske om å skape nye former for berøring, i kunsten og i livet. Dette bidraget til VIS er skapt i samarbeid og dialog med scenekunstner Hanna Barfod, prest, sanger og stipendiat Mathias Gillebo, filmfotograf og klipper Mats Christian Rude Halvorsen og prest Arne Jor.
