Oslofjord Ecologies Expedition

The Oslofjord Garden is wet and blue, a video essay that travels the fjord, encompassing site specific footage as well as artists’ contributions, archival material and conversations with artists and scientists. The Oslofjord runs from the Skagerak sea north of Denmark through narrow straits and sometimes shallow waters towards Norway’s most densely populated area of Viken (the Bay) and the city of Oslo. It shows the landscapes of the inner parts above and beneath the surface, as well as exchanges with people and encounters with marine species. Mostly overlooked by tourists who want to experience Norwegian fjords, the Oslofjord contains ecological connections and challenges that are specific and tangible, as well as cultural practices and interactions with the environment and its populations. The Oslofjord is nature, economy, biology, materiality, culture and history as well as future plans and challenges. This work is based on contributions to the Oslofjord Ecologies artistic research platform and the newly published book, Oslofjord Ecologies. Artistic Research on Environmental and Social Sustainability.
