When children and objects meet
Ram Galleri, Oslo, 2016
The installation was adapted for children aged 0-3, as well as for a general audience. The installation comprised sculptures and videos relating to the specific site. Another part of the experience was a daily performance by dancer Beata Kretovicova Iden with a musician in addition to a soundscape by Ylva Gulpinar.
The installation plays on interaction beween the children and the objects and the abstract and tangible expressions created thereby. The sculptural quality of the textile objects inspires playfulness and exploration. The objects can be seen as an extention of the human body and provide novel physical encounters.
Inspired by the rag doll body we decided to make objects without any obvious function. The childrens encounter with the objects depends on the objects weight and mobility. Objects wich present alternate usage as well as challenges will be perceived as new.
