The OFFBEAT exhibit 2018:
OFFBEAT 2018 focused on the fuse of technology and old-fashioned handcraft. It´s about finding one’s identity and roots and adding the digital. We transformed designers Edda Gimnes exhibit area into a world in full bloom with oversized flower prints and design pieces placed around it´s garden in the same pattern and Kit Wan´s into a world of high technology and futurism. The other artists Berglind Rognvaldsdottir, Guttestreker, Eirik Lyster, Lieu Le and Adrian Platkosvky staged live performances, video work, photography and paintings and digital paintings around the museum. 3D animation with a soundscape projected on top of traditional paintings, a hallway full of nipples to encourage the audience to reflect on sexuality, bubblegum and dance on the moon.
The National Museums location Mellomstasjonen housed this exhibit in a collaboration with COLLECTIVE and The National Museum in Oslo. 4500 people came to see the exhibit and mingle with the artists.
