The artists Margrethe Pettersen, Line Solberg Dolmen, and curator Ebba Moi have shared an intimate insight about the process of the exhibition "Samtaler med det som renner dypt".

For their MOMENTUM 12 collaboration, a hidden creek in Jeløya will be made accessible through listening, intervention and movement in the landscape. The process explores fluidity - various bodies and movements of water, as well as underground and overground networks. Inspired by and in collaboration with the surroundings (sounds, stream, trees, plants, polypores, lichens and mushrooms), they will create a site-responsive work. A map handout with notes for guidance invites the audience to an outdoor sensory experience near Galleri F15

For this episode on Momentum Radio, we would like to introduce one of our partners in the project “The Artist is Present. Contemporary art residencies in schools” together with Latvian Centre for Contemporary Art.

Tenthaus has been main partner in the project “The Artist is Present. Contemporary art residencies in schools” together with Latvian Centre for Contemporary Art (LCCA) since November 2022. Seven Latvian artists have initiated residencies in schools and Tenthaus collective has been supporting the process through a dynamic exchange. The aim is to develop a stable contact between professional artists and local schools in Latvia.

While so far their interactions have happened online, Latvian artists in the project took part in Momentum 12 in June. On this occasion they had an anticipation of the Summer school, happening in Valmiera in August 2023. During the Summer School the artists together with Tenthaus artists facilitated workshops together for the local kids and youth; Momentum 12 was a place for experimentation and gathering between the Latvian artists, Tenthaus and other biennial participants. In Momentum 12 we open possibilities for inspiring encounters, creating a third space for creativity and resourceful experiences to further develop artistic collaborations during the Summer School.

Radio Momentum shares with you a conversation by curator Jacky Jaan-Yuan Kuo and artist Lin Junye from Fotobook DUMMIES Day 傻瓜書日, about the on-site specific artwork called "Bread and Butter Bookshop". The conversation is hosted by Wei Ting Tseng.

Fotobook DUMMIES Day focuses on image, self-publishing, and locality, with a practice of connecting communities, facilitating dialogue, and using unconventional exhibition spaces.

This time, they open up the Galleri F15 Library, which is usually closed to the public, to turn it into an on-site specific artwork called "Bread and Butter Bookshop". They use reading, chatting, and self-publishing to spark a conversation: Is the desire to own a photobook similar to buying bread or butter for daily consumption?

This is a conversation between curator Belén Santillán and artist Gabo Camnitzer about his work "50 Million Windows" at Momentum 12, hosted by Wei Ting Tseng/Zeng.

50 Million Windows is a collaborative drawing project inspired by the trailblazing public grade school teacher, Albert Collum's prompt to his students from 1963: "Draw every window in New York City." In the project’s first installment, the summer youth camp at Queens Museum (2021) attempted to draw New York City’s current 50,000,000 windows, while discussing what a window really is: where the word comes from ("wind-eye"), what differences in kinds of windows from neighborhood to neighborhood signify, and how our relationship to our windows changed over the course of COVID.

During Momentum 12, we invite you to look through the windows of this gallery and draw every window in Moss.

Three days before the opening of Momentum 12, I had the opportunity to join Stephanie Lüning and the curator Stefan Schröder at the P1 mobile studio for a relaxed chat. As our acquaintance deepened, we delved into our personal experiences, and I hope that you, too, can share in the intimacy of our conversation as Stephanie and Stefan opened up about their connection with art, and the curatorial process of “Collectivity Paintings, no. I & II Momentum Biennale and Island of Foam (version no. 24)".

For MOMENTUM 12, Stephanie Lüning is developing two projects. The first is a series of Collectivity Paintings created from ink derived from plant-based waste such as beetroot, onion, and walnut collected from Galleri F15 restaurant and birch and apple tree barks from local farms. The second project is site-specific foam actions made from rainwater and collected water waste around the exhibition venue.

A Radio Series by Kirsty Kross for Tenthaus

Kirsty Kross introduces the series walking alone in the forest at night without a flashlight. Whilst on an arts residency at Dale Nordisk Kunstnersenter, a Scandinavian arts paradise, she has had much time for soul searching as an artist. Will she be able to negotiate the next period of her life and still keep making art?

The episode features an interview with Kate Pendry who has had a very prolific career writing and producing over 50 pieces for the theatre winning many awards for her work, including the Ibsen Prize in 2009. Kate discusses how she has dealt with the controversy surrounding her work which has even sometimes resulted in death threats. Now back on track after years of mental health problems, Kate also discusses her recovery and how acting remains her passion.

Featuring playlists by Kirsty Kross and Kate Pendry as well as an improvised noise set by Stavanger based art and music group, GN00R that was recorded in the forest at Dale i Sunnfjord.

Swearing warning. Kirsty Kross fell many times in the dark in the forest, almost lost an eye and did eventually get lost for about ten minutes. Research has proven though that people who swear are generally more honest.

1#: THIS IS IT?

For the first episode, we will be live with some of the students currently at KHIO who have been working on a collective antiracist proposal, including among other suggestions a long time anti-discriminatory plan and adding non-Western canons to the main curriculum.

The proposal emerged within the context of Black Lives Matter protests, a global movement of solidarity with George Floyd, who was murdered in the US by police officers as he called for his mother and said “I can’t breathe”.

His last words became an international slogan to express anger, loss and the feeling of belonging by relating to the cause and the condition.

As history has shown, social rights movements have always been embodied by students and youth organisations, and have usually been opposed firmly by the majority, not willing to give-up hegemony.

With its 6 departments, Kunsthøgskolen i Oslo (KHIO) is Norway’s largest art education institution. The school is not only expected to reach international standards but also be a leading example in the Nordic region.

In this show, we will focus on the content of the students’ proposal, their ideas, hopes and ambitions for the future.

The audience is invited to interact live with us by calling at +47 92 01 30 07

If you don’t want to talk, it’s also possible to ask for your favorite song!

Welcome,

This episode led to the open letter to KHiO by students being read and discussed, you can read here, along with a petition.

In addition we read the electoral program of Måns Wrange and Anne-Linn Akselsen. The program was chosen with more than 60% of the votes in April 2019.

This broadcast is the last in the Sonic Scenography series. It is an investigation into the concept of ´sound pictures´ as described by Thørbjørn Reuter Christiansen in a conversation about his father, the composer and artist Henning Christiansen. The program includes a sequence of recordings where the confinement of the space is counterposed by recordings of nature and imposed rhythms, including the Henning Christiansen Archive.

Sonic Scenography is a series of twelve radio broadcasts by artist Rachel Dagnall about the experience of incarceration. The theme is explored through non-verbal sound or sonic scenographies composed by former inmates in Beirut, Syria, the Mojave Desert, Oslo, Berlin and Barcelona.

The project aims to showcase artistic expressions about prison, surveillance and imposed mental and physical demarcation, and illustrate how such experiences distort or change our interpretation of space and immediate surroundings.

Actors move and create images of one specific place - both physical and mental - in the form of musical performances, physical movements, readings, conversations and more, with the use of resonance bringing a specific focus to the different rooms in which this takes place.

Sonic Scenography is commissioned by and produced in collaboration with Radio Tenthaus and forms Rachel’s Master project at the Norwegian Theatre Academy in Fredrikstad, Østfold.

Today's broadcast comprises of excerpts read from a diary and book of suicide notes written by Rachel during her home imprisonment in Oslo. The texts are a reflection upon the themes of isolation whilst remaining as a functioning citizen in society, and aim to uncover a personal struggle with loneliness and exclusion. The question of how relationships are permanently changed after such a home internment are an undercurrent in the slightly tragi-comic theme of ´ending it all´ whilst confined without any supporting structure.
