About this exposition

In April 2022 the Indonesian band Lair came to visit Sigrid Espelien in Oslo as part of their World Terracotta Tour that later ended up at Documenta 15 in Kassel. The band plays on clay instruments made from rooftiles, vessels and ceramic flutes and is part of the artist collective Jatiwangi Art Factory based in West Java in Indonesia. The collective and the way they work and play together through clay and the complex landscape it is part of is a great inspiration to how I think about clay in my work. "Tanah" is an essential element for Jatiwangi people as material, ideas and way of life. Tanah can be translated into soil, earth, clay, land, etc. This holistic way of thinking in Jatiwangi Art Factory about clay is a big reference in my research. In Lair´s visit in Oslo we had two public talks and two concerts and a lot of conversations and jam sessions.
