H A V by Elin Tanding Sørensen

HAV evokes the spatiality of the undersea landscape together with the colours and lifeforms within this hidden, fluid realm. HAV has many co-creators: barnacles and marine biologists, porcelain, sugar kelp, saltwater, ceramicists, crabs, clay, annelids and many more. HAV was orchestrated by artist and landscape architect Elin T. Sørensen as part of her doctoral project “Multispecies Neighborhoods in Urban Sea Areas,” the Norwegian University of Life Sciences, NMBU. Curated by Annike Flo and staged at the Norwegian BioArt Arena NOBA Vitenparken Campus Ås 2020. Image: Barnacle (Semibalanus balanoides).

"Fjøset" May 19-23, 2019: workshop led by the Korean clay artists Hyangjong Oh and Nari Kwon in the making of a raw clay installation
at "Fjøset", Ringebu parsonage. To gain experience with clay, a column that eventually rose to the ceiling was hand built by means of the versatile coiling technique. Clay is a nature-based non-toxic material. The partici-
pation in the workshop was part of exploring marine life-friendly materials. Time-lapse Elin T. Sørensen © BONO 2019/2020.
