I blǿmingjinn // In the Flowering of Spring is an ode to springtime and its blooming plants and flowers. Initially performed in 2022, the artwork uses found objects and is specific to the place and time it was created. The work aims to create a space for ritual, reflection and rest through a combination of field recordings, folk songs and improvisations on deer antler instruments. The artist, strongly inspired by cyclical and pre-capitalist understandings of time, draws on symbolism and mythological references to evoke feelings of belonging.

SPIRAL 02 (Hay Spiral for the Cows) is a site-specific installation initially made for a herd of cows. The artist spent a summer alone on a traditional Norwegian mountain farm where the animals roam free and created the installation as a farewell ritual. The work is part of a series of temporary, site-specific, spiral-shaped installations made from found objects. The series is inspired by the symbiotic intertwinement that may exist between a place and its human and more-than-human inhabitants.

Eivor Slågedal was born in 1996 in Birkeland, Norway, and lives and works in Bergen, Norway.

I blǿmingjinn // V cvetenju pomladi je oda pomladi ter njenim cvetočim rastlinam in rožam. Umetniško delo, ki je bilo prvič izvedeno leta 2022, uporablja najdene objekte in je specifično za lokacijo in čas, ko je bilo ustvarjeno. Združuje terenske posnetke, ljudske pesmi ter improvizacijo na glasbila iz jelenovega rogovja in s tem ustvarja prostor za ritual, refleksijo in počitek. Umetnica, ki jo močno navdihuje ciklično in predkapitalistično razumevanje časa, črpa iz simbolizma in mitoloških referenc, s čemer želi vzbujati občutke pripadanja.

SPIRALA 02 (Spirala sena za krave) je instalacija, specifična za lokacijo, prvotno ustvarjena za čredo krav. Umetnica je preživela poletje sama na tradicionalni norveški gorski kmetiji, kjer se živali prosto pasejo, in ustvarila instalacijo kot poslovilni ritual. Delo je del serije časovno in lokacijsko obeleženih, spiralno oblikovanih instalacij, narejenih iz najdenih objektov. Samo serijo navdihuje simbiotski preplet, ki obstaja med določeno lokacijo in njenimi človeškimi ter več-kot-človeškimi prebivalci.
