On the Edge of Fading Voltage

In her solo exhibition, Liivrand presents her ongoing drawing series Crumbling Silhouettes, which in this new exhibition takes on a new headline Fading Voltage, alongside a new stained glass sculpture, Echo of Shards (2025). The worlds in her drawings evoke decaying ruins scattered with relics of the past, as well as imagined new Edens—lush with […]

Moving Grounds

The exhibition Moving Grounds presents a collaborative project by visual artists Marta Djourina and Rita Koszorús. Both artists are connected by their exploration of the mutability of environments and places in which they live, as well as by a need for travel and the ability—at once a necessity and a determination—to adapt to new and […]

Parade

The word parade carries within it a fertile ambiguity: both a gesture of protection and of exposure, of concealment and of unveiling. Derived from the verb parer – to defend oneself, to prepare oneself, to become visible – it evokes a surface movement, a strategy of appearance. Here, the parade is a space of emancipation […]

Sexi Flex

The exhibition Sexi Flex by Hedda Hørran marks part one of a trilogy spanning Bærum Kunsthall → Telemark Art Centre → Visual Artists in Oslo (BO). Across these three chapters, the story of a room occupied by something—or someone—foreign unfolds, inviting the audience into an anarchic, nostalgic, absurd, and sexy universe.

Eat the Roses

The image of the breastfeeding Madonna, or Madonna Lactans, is a recurring motif in ecclesiastical depictions of the Virgin Mary and the infant Jesus.

There is a legend surrounding La […]

Skin of Memory

The Skin of Memory exhibition outlines the fragile boundary between surface and carnality, where the image itself reveals and conceals what lies beneath. Here, the surface is not just an imaginary skin that can be pierced, but an unstable plane where desire, memory, and the impermanence of the body meet. Anna-Marie Berdychová’s photographs glide across […]

Limbo

Thomas Sankara, the Marxist and Pan-Africanist revolutionary who served as the President of Burkina Faso, treated politics as creative labor, translating will into an aesthetic of liberation. A guitarist and poet, he approached governance as composition, drafting social change as living score. Drawing from the grammar of fragment, rhythm, and nonlinear structure, Jabari Wimbley’s Limbo […]
