Five artists, connected by proximity yet shaped by different linguistic realities, come together in the exhibition Trait d’union – Hyphen (in Norwegian, bindestrek). Here, they create a fluid interplay of sentiment, and their own grammatically precise yet distinct syntactic aesthetics. The participating European artists present works that embrace imperfection, forming a kind of worldly cartography of language. Moving fluidly between prefixes and suffixes, both they and we explore time—future and past—as something simultaneously hypothetical, mundane, and magical.
