Experimental artist, composer, singer from Norway, leaning into intuition, texture blocks, and radicality. She sings at sacred painting exhibitions, writes poetic text, composes handwritten music, improvises with strangers, creates concerts with silence, exhibits fragments, performs the secrets. Her practice lives in sketches, longing and veils. Her current work explores the poetic qualities of the skin and the possibility of touching the invisible.

𝑨𝒓𝒐𝒏 π‘­π’π’ˆπ’†π’π’”π’•π’“π’Μˆπ’Ž:
Audio-visual artist and filmmaker who works with linguistic science fiction through sound, architecture and speculative storytelling. Working across film, installation, performance and sound, he develops narratives in which voices, bodies and spaces interact within and without language, producing shifting experiences of belonging, disorientation and collective sense-making in contemporary life.
