Tromsø

This exhibition looks to the nature of the North through a selection of artworks from the Nordnorsk Kunstmuseum's collection. Common to the artists represented is that they convey nature, but with different perspectives, approaches, and presences.

Høysalen (The high hall) will regularly house new works from the collection and function as a kind of project space, with complicated installations from the collection that mainly highlight female artists in the collection from Sápmi/Northern Norway.

The installation in this room was recently acquired for the Nordnorsk Kunstmuseum's collection and is based on a concept by the artist, Carola Grahn. Titled "Mother, Sun and Ocean, VII and V Years", 2025, it is part of a series of artworks that follow the artist's experience of motherhood and her relationships with her children.
