HOW THE UNIVERSE WORKS
ART FOR CHILDREN
How The Universe Works was a group show at Kunsthall Oslo in the summer of 2019, and part of their series of exhibitions and talks addressing the relationship between children and art. The artists were asked to make work specifically with children in mind.
I was asked to design the exhibition space, in collaboration with the Kunsthall, as well as contribute with my own works. The main design features were a bright yellow carpet, barred walls made from elastic cords, low curved passageways in painted aluminium and two floating benches in the middle of the space, suspended between three mirrored pillars.
I also made a group of sculptures named Channelers (see separate post), and a set of 12 postcards with emoji collages I had previously made with Instagram´s Instastory application on a mobile phone, selected by the Kunsthall..
ARTISTS: Jennie Bringaker, Yngve Holen, Anawana Haloba, Are Mokkelbost, Christian Tony Norum, Roman Signer, William Wegman and Kiyoshi Yamamoto.
