Sans Papiers
Studio 17, Stavanger
30.4.-3.5.15
Prints, drawings and installations in paper and eggshells
As several opponents of multicultures and immigration use "illegal", "unwanted" or other negative terms on "the others", a neutral term is "without papers", meaning lacking the necessary papers to be able to stay in a country. As vulnerable as refugees, fragile eggshells and paper is used in this exhibition. Shapes of miniature nametags are printed into the paper, paper is folded or crumbled, or paper is drawed upon. And eggshells, former protecting shells of life, later waste after a healthy meal, are again used in a sculpture.
