🌱Korleis blir verdien omgjevnadene våre har for oss påverka når landskapet er i stadig endring? Kva rolle og handlekraft opplever dei som bur i landskapet at dei har? Og korleis blir tilhøyrsle og ulike syn på naturen sin verdi forhandla i moderne energilandskap? 

Dette står sentralt i Ase Brunborg Lie si utstilling Nimble Weavers.

🌱Utstillinga spring ut frå eit eittårig samarbeid mellom Brunborg Lie og forskingsprosjektet ACTIONABLE ved Universitetet i Bergen, gjennomført i Nordhordland UNESCO biosfæreområde. Gjennom lyttevandringar , workshopar, intervju og feltarbeid har prosjektet samla erfaringar, refleksjonar og inntrykk frå dei som bur i området.

🌱På Hordaland kunstsenter blir dette formidla gjennom film og tekstilverka laga med lokal saueull, farga med plantar og sopp sanka i Nordhordland.

Delta på arrangement knytt til utstillinga:

-Opning 22. mai kl.18.00

-Kitchen Dinner Event 26. mai kl.18.00 

-Utstillinga står til 08.08.

@asebrunborglie spent the past month in Bergen Kunsthall’s Live studio. During their residency, they worked on the one-year cross-disciplinary project ‘Nimble Weavers’, a collaboration with @nh_biosphere and the NFR-project ACTIONABLE at the University of Bergen.

The project examines how we negotiate belonging and conflicting values in nature, focusing on areal planning, energy infrastructure, future sustainability, local agency and land-use conflicts in the Nordhordland region. Outside the studio, they travelled around the region, filming large-scale energy infrastructure and rare ecologies. In the studio, they worked on film and sound editing, as well as a 40m-long textile work embroidered with local wool dyed with plants and mushrooms gathered in Nordhordland region. The works will be exhibited at @kunstsenterfrom 22.5—8.8.2026 and at @dengronefabrikken from Sep—Oct 2026.

Velkommen til åpningen av Nimble Weavers, fredag 22. mai kl. 18:00!
 
Hvordan blir verdien omgivelsene våre har for oss påvirket av kontinuerlige endringer i landskapet? Hvilken rolle og agens føler de som bor i landskapet at de har? Hvordan forhandler vi tilhørighet og motstridende syn på naturens verdi innenfor moderne energilandskap? 
 
Dette er spørsmål som står sentralt i Ase Brunborg Lies utstilling Nimble Weavers. 
 
Nimble Weavers er også tittelen på det ettårige tverrfaglige samarbeidet mellom kunstner Ase Brunborg Lie og forskningsprosjektet ACTIONABLE ved Universitetet i Bergen, som har funnet sted i Nordhordland UNESCO biosfæreområde. 
 
En serie lyttevandringer, forskningsintervjuer og andre undersøkelser har dannet grunnlaget for arbeidene som vises på Hordaland kunstsenter - gjennom hele sommeren.

Join us for the opening of Nimble Weavers, Friday 22 May at 18:00!

How is the value of our surroundings affected by a landscape under continuous change? What role and agency do local inhabitants feel they have? How do we negotiate conflicting values of nature and belonging within modern energy landscapes?
 
These are central questions in Ase Brunborg Lie’s exhibition Nimble Weavers.

Nimble Weavers is also the title of the one-year interdisciplinary collaboration between artist Ase Brunborg Lie and the research project ACTIONABLE at the University of Bergen, conducted in the Nordhordland UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

A series of listening walks and research interviews have formed the foundation for the works in this year’s summer exhibition at Hordaland Kunstsenter.

Project coordinator: @robin.everett

As a way to share the research conducted during their Live studio residency, Ase Brunborg Lie invites 10 participants to join a hike at Burkelandsfjellet (Osterøy. Elevation: 365m). During the walk, the artist will guide participants in developing situated knowledge of large-scale infrastructures through silent listening, sensing, mapping, and narrating what is often rendered abstract or inaccessible. The group will then return to Bergen Kunsthall's Live Studio for reflection, drawing exercises, and discussion.

This workshop is part of @asebrunborglie long-term project NIMBLE WEAVERS, an investigation into energy infrastructure, land-use conflict, and community knowledge within Nordhordland UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Engaging with the layering of national climate policy, local ecologies, and rural livelihoods, the project examines how extractive logics, land-use and preservation both shape and are shaped by the relationships we cultivate with land and community.

NIMBLE WEAVERS is coordinated by artist @robin.everett as a part of the NFR transdisciplinary research project ACTIONABLE at the University of Bergen, engaging art and science to address climate adaptation and sustainability in collaboration with the Nordhordland UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. NIMBLE WEAVERS is supported by Vestland fylkeskommune and Bergen Kommune.

We are so happy to finally share @robin.everett 's fascinating work where he taps into different dimensions of frequency and offers us a peek into fictional but yet possible futures.

The audio appearing in these videos were recorded using sensors & microphones connected to historical objects and infrastructure in Rjukan. This turned them into antennae’s able to receive and record electromagnetic frequencies flowing through the town today.

The text appearing in these videos was generated by a neural network trained on a combination of solarpunk sci-fi literature and texts on the history of Rjukan, which then interpreted the audio into language.

The characters, dates, scenarios, and statements are all results of these unique combinations and parameters.

In the coming days, we will provide a glimpse of the different results here, and a link to the full videos.

First up; Rjukan Varelager.

The Rjukan Varelager building and the artist's own body inside the building were used as antennae to be able to detect and record the electromagnetic frequencies that are currently being emitted throughout Rjukan.

For this location the network created George Januszkiewicz, a cosmographer and terrestrial ecologist in the year 2310, speaking on the necessity of geopolitical unity in overcoming fossil fuel dependence and on local and municipal action in remediating the damage done.

Next up is @robin.everett ! A visual artist & writer who received his Masters in Fine Arts in 2018 from the Bergen Academy of Art. Now living and working between Finland and Norway with themes encompassing the macro and micro of Nordic biomes and wider socio- and techno-ecological concerns through the mediums of contemporary art, environmental education, residency hosting, research and publishing practices.

Robin is participating as a representative of the @mustarinda association, a group of artists & researchers whose goal is to promote the ecological rebuilding of society, diversity of culture and nature, and the connection between art and science.

Robin’s contribution to the festival is to generate visions of possible futures for the town and the ecosystem it is embedded in, through using objects of the past to perceive and map the present.

The work will be an alternative audio tour through the town; a fictional future built from a preserved past revealing an invisible present. The historical landmarks of Rjukan’s industrial history will be used as very literal antennas as Robin is able to record the electromagnetic frequencies swarming through the town today. These frequencies, existing beyond the human capacity to sense, will show the unseen energy infrastructures that are the very reason for the town’s being.

The audio and electromagnetic metadata captured via these historic objects in the present moment will be used as site-specific parameters by which a host of neural networks trained on the history of Rjukan and science-fiction literature will generate texts exploring possible futures that lay ahead for the town.

Robin’s contribution to the festival is to generate visions of possible futures for the town and the ecosystem it is embedded in, through using objects of the past to perceive and map the present.

The work will be an alternative audio tour through the town; a fictional future built from a preserved past revealing an invisible present. The historical landmarks of Rjukan’s industrial history will be used as very literal antennas as Robin is able to record the electromagnetic frequencies swarming through the town today. These frequencies, existing beyond the human capacity to sense, will show the unseen energy infrastructures that are the very reason for the town’s being.

The audio and electromagnetic metadata captured via these historic objects in the present moment will be used as site-specific parameters by which a host of neural networks trained on the history of Rjukan and science-fiction literature will generate texts exploring possible futures that lay ahead for the town.

Nearly a year since last posting about this and here we are, opening next weekend at the Venice Architecture Biennale! - A year of working and learning in equal parts for our contributions with many thanks to Neringa Forest Architecture, Mustarinda, the Kainuu schools, the forests and many others.
🌲
Children’s Forest Pavilion in Venice
🌲
As a part of the Venice Architecture Biennale 2023 Mustarinda collaborated with Neringa Forest Architecture on the Children's Forest Pavilion, representing the Lithuanian Pavilion. Throughout late 2022 and early 2023 a team of Mustarinda members, working as artists and art & environmental educators held a series of workshops with the local Puolankajärvi and Hyrynsalmi comprehensive schools in Kainuu that informed and evolved into a play space in the pavilion, a video work, and a publication and workbook.
Six workshops took place during the crisp days of late autumn 2022 in Kainuu, Finland. Several workshops also followed in Nida, Lithuania. The workshop series explored what makes a forest, its ecosystem, and its many communities through processes of investigation, art making, and learning about the forest ecology. The workshops also reflected on the human impacts on forests, the resilience of forest biomes, and on time as a key factor of biodiversity gain.
🌲
The Paljakanvaara multispecies community, the workshops, and Mustarinda's collective efforts to further understandings and knowledges of the local communities and ecosystems are present through the Pavilion in many forms and layers. The work, woven from and into the long and short time cycles of the forest, can be seen throughout ‘The Forest Continuum’ publication and workbook. The children’s own imagery and processes of learning and knowing are present in the pavilion through a film and informing the playspace environment.
🌲
Pavilion will be open 18 May – 26 November 2023
2125 Campo Tana, Castello, Venice
(opposite the entrance to the Arsenale)

So, this is pretty great news shared by the Lithuanian Council for Culture this week!! Beyond excited to be a part of the team working towards realising this:

🌲🌲🌲

'Children’s Forest Pavilion' by Neringa Forest Architecture project by Nida Art Colony / Nidos meno kolonija in collaboration with MUSTARINDA and School of Creativity has been selected to represent Lithuania in the 18th International Architecture Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia 2023!!!

🌲🌲🌲

'Children’s Forest Pavilion' will be composed as a playscape, an immersive environment and an educational installation dedicated to unfolding timescales, processes and forces that have shaped forests of Baltic States and Finland in the past, but most importantly, how they will develop in the future. The main role in developing and curating this installation is given to a collaboration with children and young adults as consultants, allies and the pavilion's ideal audience to highlight the need for long term cultural initiatives and role of education in promoting the cyclical paradigm of sustainability.

Commissioner: Dr. Ines Weizman
Curators: @jurgadau , Egija Inzule, @zuka.jonas
‘Children’s Forest Pavilion’ will be created by #NeringaForestArchitecture at @nidaartcolony of Vilnius Academy of Arts in collaboration with School of Creativity (LT) and @mustarinda (FI).
'Children’s Forest Pavilion' is supported by the Lithuanian Council for Culture.

Finally had some time to document a book I made quite a while ago that slipped through the cracks of the pandemic closures.

The book is an algorithmic re-reading of Virginia Woolf's novel 'The Waves'. The work uses the tidal frequency of a lunar day as a dividing framework to produce a chance (re)composition of the original novel.

In the accompanying afterword LIAF 2019 curator Neal Cahoon writes:
"The novel has been poured into the 372.5 minutes of tidal transition, and the new work follows an intermittent reading of the parent text as the saltwater rises. The volume is reduced, and word-events are churned up through the durational intervals of the tidal flow, presenting fragments on the page for inspection, association, and connection. The reader then becomes a beachcomber, a wandered along the coasts of Woolf's words, inspecting what has been cast up..."

Many thanks to @podium_oslo for having me and thank you to everyone who came and saw the work and for the many great conversations that came out of it.

Here is a fragment of the 5-channel video installation containing photogrammetry models produced from videos of the kelp forests surrounding Lofoten, along with an AI generated text from a neural network trained on all the research surrounding this project.
