Biter som faller - Pieces that fall

In the exhibition at Østfold Artcenter Tone Myskja is showing the video “Pieces that fall” with a soundwork composed by Jon Balke. The work is related to Tone Myskjas interest in how space and time affect our identity and perception. The video work thematises complexity and uncertainty in relation to a given state; The instability of space and time.
The exhibition themes the human experience related to the arctic landscape.
Myskja is concerned with how human interaction unfolds in everyday unpredictable events - in the span between the poetic and the political. Her work are related to her interest in performing arts, music and visual arts. The exhibition deals with how the landscape, geography and the space around us are influenced by light, temperature and what / who resides in the there. There are movements in bedrock, the glacial calves, the fog comes and goes, the landscape thickens. It is like waves of moving particles in their own incomprehensible system. The invisible / incomprehensible particle system can also be transferred on to human opinions, memories, emotions, crowds and technology. Society and everyday life sometimes change in invisible waves. Displacements occur without us having fully seen or understood how the displacement occurred.
