This autumn I was asked by Christian Tony Norum if I would like to be a part of a group exhibition he was hosting at the Munch Museum where he was doing a collaboration with the ongoing Jorn+Munch exhibition. My contribution was a video titled Burning guitar. The idea was to film and record the sound a of burning guitar, isolating the destructive crescendo from live performances. Many thanks to Espen T. Hangård for making the open power chord to initiate the sound, and to Rudi Simmons, Steinar E. Rossing, John Chr. Gulliksen and Oslo Brann- og redningsetat for helping me out. Please contact me for link and password to the video.

UR are three collage clocks made by Are Mokkelbost for Bjørnsletta Skole in Oslo, Norway, 2014. They are a permanent public installation commissioned by Kulturetaten, Oslo Kommune, curated by Siri Austeen and Hanne Øverland. The fundamental concept is that the hands of the clock are replaced with rotating discs. The circular discs are cut into the clock face, across each image.The discs rotate; fragmenting and assembling the image as time goes by. Consequently the composition is always changing, each state representing the current time. The discs on the first clock rotate once every minute. The discs on the second clock rotate once every hour. The discs on the third clock rotate once every 12 hours. Together the three clocks tell the current time. Film by Carsten Aniksdal. Music by Are Mokkelbost.

I got inspired by the solar eclipse on the 20th of March this year to start shooting Polaroids again. For a long time I've had a special relation to this format. First and foremost I like the fact that there only exist one of each image. No negative or digital raw-file to render the possibility of reproduction - just the monumental singularity of the moment. I also like the fact that it takes time to develop. This creates a prolonged anticipation to re-experience the moment just captured and fires neurons into a synapse to create a feeling of nostalgia. A nostalgia over something that recently happened.
