Junaiten
The solo exhibition Junaiten II was open from 28/10-17/12 2023 at Østfold Kunstsenter, Fredrikstad.
The word "Junaiten" is Norwegian 1950s slang for USA. It is the collective title of a series of short films and related drawings I'm still working on. The central work is a triptych of short montage films where my father’s life in the US in the 1950s is set up against small texts he wrote decades later, weakened by Alzheimer’s.
Late 2023 I had finished what I expected to be the main works in this project cycle. There were, however, still a couple of ideas I wanted to persue, and they grew as I started delving into them. My work is not yet done.
