Pocket guide to Håøya - Opening of NTA master project

SARA EVELYN
Pocket guide to Håøya

I am happy to announce my MA project on Håøya with an informal opening this Saturday 6th of October.

A culmination of different timescales unearthed inside an island and surrounding industrial area. My final MA project collects together rocks and materials including gneiss’s formed in the oldest period of geological time over 1400 million years ago and recent remnants from former industry. As a deconstruction of a memorial, several hundred found pieces form a surface in the forest, each one arranged loosely leaving chance for meeting/alteration. The work links spatially to memory and remembering through the materiality of the island in recognition of the women enslaved on Håøya’s dynamite factories between 1915-1918.

Collaboration with Ane Engvik who works as a researcher at the geological survey of Norway.
