A Pop Up Book

I should have written about the exhibition A Pop Up Book a long time ago. It was an exhibition where different Norwegian artists and designers came together to show some of their work. Amongst them were me, Kings of Convenience, T-Michael, Norwegian Rain, Kristoffer Kongshaug, DoubleYou Perfume, Norwegian Rain, Bjørg Jewellery, etc.  Because that I am so late, why not read what Vogue Italia, The Diane Pernet Blog - A Shaded View on Fashion, or Oslo Nights had to write about it.


Here is a little about the choreography I did at the exhibit:
Currently in his second year studying Classical Ballet at Oslo National Academy of The Arts, Jonas loves to explore the unison between the classical dance and other art forms and expressions.
He has just become 23 years old. "The expression in the dance is what makes the dancer" - this is something he always keeps in mind.
Especially inspired by music, litterature and people, "Shadow Journal" is a piece where the dancer is turned into a minimalistic object to be looked upon as just another piece in the exhibition. At the same time the object is alive and pulsating, filled with visable feeling. It is composed by Jonas, using a mixture of set movement patterns and imporvisation.
