Among mountain landslides and frost heave

10.03 — 10.04.2022

In the exhibition "Among mountain landslides and frost heave", a critique of man's unwillingness to adapt to nature is played out. In the presented works, the human figure is represented by the synthetic materials that try to control the unpolished and natural elements. In response to man's excessive need to shape and control the environment, Gallefoss has produced unpolished objects close to their natural form, where the visual and material qualities remain the same regardless of man-made "errors". The exhibition is in this way a reference to man's almost paradoxical relationship to nature, where in recent years we want to get closer to it in the form of shopping so-called "natural" raw materials and locally produced food, while we at the same time perform controlled rock excavations, and utilize natural resources for personal gain.
