About this exposition

Whyte&Zettergren is an artistic duo comprising Jamaican dancer and performance artist Olando Whyte and Swedish visual artist Rut KarinZettergren. The duo’s works constitute an ongoing investigation of places, materials, and bodies as bearers of historical memory. Their collaboration makes visible how contemporary and historical connections between the Nordics and the Caribbean, shaped by the transatlantic slave trade, continue to affect cultures in the Atlantic world. Through their creative processes, they search for methods to process historical traumas and strive to create rituals that envision possible futures. Their works have been performed and presented at various venues, including 3:e Våningen, Galleri Gerlesborg, TEGEN2, and Konsthall C in Sweden; The Living Art Museum and Explorer Festival in Iceland; Fd Molyne's Sugar Estate, Stokes Hall Grate House and Fort Charles in Jamaica and the Museum of Impossible Forms in Finland.
