ABOUT THE EVENT:
Monu(mo)ments is an artistic concept and project developed by Eliot Moleba, which is dedicated to turning stories of Norway’s diversity into interactive, performative works of public art. The concept was developed as part of Moleba’s artistic PhD project entitled: Alternative Histori[es]: A Place Where Something Happened. During the course of the project, Moleba has collected over 50 stories, three of which have now been turned into physical monu(mo)ments: “In Her Shoes”, “Kjersti’s Line” and “Rico On The Run”.
It is these three monu(mo)ments that will be offered as part of a guided tour. The tour will cover the background stories of the narrators, focusing on the key events that will inspire their monumoments.The guide for the tour will be Stefán Hallur Stefánsson.
The work is produced by Transcultural Arts Production (TrAP) through the financial support from KORO’s Local Community Scheme (LOK).
