May/June 2011

Eyes as Big as Plates investigates the romantics claim of folklore being the clearest reflection of the soul of the people. During a residency at the KINOKINO Centre for Art and Film, the Norwegian photographer Karoline Hjorth and I traveled far and wide to meet sailors, farmers, professors, artisans, psychologists, teachers, parachuters and senior citizens in the South Western parts of Norway to see whether the old folklore held its value.

Hosted by the The Finnish-Norwegian Culture Institute, Eyes as Big as Plates had its first public viewing at DogA, The Norwegian Centre for Design and Architecture Pecha Kucha night this September.

Behind the scenes and exhibition images here soon.
