Stå sitt kast/
Face the Music
(2018)
What does it mean to open your workspace, to show your art? Reveal the flaws, blunders, mistakes, the unfinished, the undone. Whatever you do, you choose to show something and opt out of showing something else. Moving in space like a living sculpture, like a medium of non-moving things.
A performance by and with dance artist Siri Jøntvedt and visual artist Elinor Strøm.

Antique Drooling (2019)
My body – my future. My body – my furniture.
My body, my cupboard, my ashtray.
My case, my container. My body – my guitar case
A pile of crap. My crap, your crap. Antiques. Old junk, old stuff, used stuff. Better used.
In between. In the middle (of the road).
Growing white. Growing grey.
Going vintage, tune in with the old ones.
The young ones. The old ones.
Me and my patina. Us and our spots. Us and our favourite spots.
You and your wrinkles. Wrinkle about.
Invisible
Affiliation among old furniture. Old stuff – old furniture – Home among old stuff.
Arrangements.
Move things around, and yourself.
It’s a lot to keep track of.
It´s a bit too much now.
I move, I think. Move and think. Relate. Arrange arrangements. Be present with whatever.
Put together and take apart. Keep going. Body and Things in motion.
Art in motion.
