About this exposition

en
Our exposition comes out of a conversation and explorative research process about the performative potential of archives, both publicly and personally, shaped by four different artistic mediums and practices in film, performance art, choreography and essay writing. The shared medium has been through the use of text and online communication. The research was developed through ongoing monthly meetings and notes that were taken since April 2019. From those meetings, we laid a structure where we each created our parts of what became the score for "Living and Lasting", which we first performed in Oslo and then in Berlin in 2022*. This score is the pivot point of our exposition. Our working process includes considerable elements of risk and surprise by alternating between collaborative meetings and individual work. The first time we perform a new piece none of us know exactly what or how the others will present. Along with the audience, we experience portions of the text, movements, and media put together for the first time, without knowing whether the whole thing will coalesce, diverge, or fall apart.  (*) In Oslo at the 2022 Nordic Summer University (NSU) and in Berlin at the symposium “Who tells y/our story?” ​​by the artistic research project MEMORYWORK (2021-2024).

Vårt bidrag kommer ut av en samtale og utforskende forskningsprosess om det performative potensialet i arkiver, både offentlige og personlige, og kommer ut av våre ulike kunstneriske medier og praksiser innen film, performance-kunst, koreografi og essayskriving. Prosjektet ble påbegynt i april 2019 og utviklet gjennom bruk av videokonferanseverktøy i en serie av månedlige møter hvor vi delte tekster, bilder og arbeidet i felles dokumenter. Møtene la grunnlaget for en struktur der hver utarbeidet sine bidrag til det som ble til ‘scoret’ eller ‘partituret’ for «Living and Lasting», som først ble fremført i Oslo for så i Berlin i 2022*. Dette scoret er omdreiningspunktet for vår eksposisjon her. Vår arbeidsprosess er basert på gjensidig faglig tillit og inkluderer en kalkulert bruk av risiko og «chance-operations» i vekslingen mellom samarbeidsbaserte løsninger og individuelt arbeid. Første gang vi fremfører et nytt stykke vet ingen av oss nøyaktig hva eller hvordan de andre vil presentere sine bidrag. Sammen med publikum opplever vi derfor performativt deler av tekstene, bevegelsene og media som benyttes som for første gang, uten å vite om det hele vil smelte sammen, divergere eller falle fra hverandre.
