Hallberg invited other BKN artists to the solo-show Becoming Landscape, 2023
For the exhibition project Becoming Landscape, artist/curator Anna Viola Hallberg has invited artists she worked closely with during the last 2 years. – The title refers to mental landscapes and how, as artists, we can continue to work and create platforms where we can rethink the various systems, we are part of.
We elaborated up on a new reference system based on care strategies, unfolding ways to share as astrong and generous act and through this act establishing a fabric – a landscape – that we all become part of.
The selected works for the solo show at DAS ESSZIMMER – space for art+ emerge at a meta level what could be perceived as gateways or thresholds between or with-in systems. The discourse, hence occasional specific geopolitical mentioning, lingers on and initiates a process where re-storying takes place and opens up for shared and reflective space and how possibly the in-between stories bring forward agency as the re/de/un do vulnerabilities and introduces a discussion on desire of being connected and how to orchestrate resistance and question what value systems we feed into. >>>

>>>Documentation from work process
Summer of 2021 BKN participated in the annual art in the river in Norrtälje (Konst I ån). The theme of the year was Cartography.
Perfect Condition, som fenomen ute i naturen uppstår där liv egentligen inte rimligtvis skulle kunna existera. Träd skjutna ur berg blir till en alkemisk sinnebild som fångar tankens utåtvändhet, där konsten går in och förskjuter eller till och med lyfter på sanningens slöjor. Björkö Konstnods kollektiva gestaltning för Konst i Ån 2021 är ett simulacra av detta tillstånd.
BKN konstnärerna som med sina olika kompetenser har bidragit till såväl koncept som gestaltning är Anna Viola Hallberg, Jesper Nyren, Ulla Bella Hauffman, Åsa Öhrn, Naomi Nowak, Bilyana Furnadzhieva, Jody Wood samt scenograf Jan Borén och en rad Rospiggar. bjorkokonstnod.se
