These first couple of weeks I have mainly been busy writing preparing funding applications and working hard on taking a recently realised project forward, as I’m currently in the process of looking for, and negotiating with potential host venues for a project called Dreams’ Time Capsule by the Italian artist Eva Frapiccini. Originally produced by Arkitekturmuseet, Stockholm, where it was also exhibited, the project has so far collected dreams archives in Cairo (at the Townhouse Gallery), in Stockholm (Arkitekturmuseet and Fittja Open), and in Turin. If you would love to have DTC visit your city, get in touch!

I will keep working on this project while in residence here at nkd, but I will also be mumbling on a new proposal: a programme of screenings of artists’ short films for a captive audience, to be projected on the different local and regional ferry lines crossing the Western fjords here in Norway. The idea is to include both Norwegian and international artists, so feel free to submit your material.
Besides that, I will be finally taking up my long overdue column RSVP (Regarding Studio Visit Practices) on the artist-run editorial project FiskFrisk.
Stay tuned!
