Project Description:
Almost Held brings together new work by Damaris Athene and Valentino Vannini, developed during their residency at Studio17 in Stavanger. United by a shared interest in thresholds and states of transition, the exhibition unfolds as a material and perceptual dialogue shaped by the coastal landscape. Athene presents expanded photographic works initiated through site-responsive image making in Stavanger and on the island of Vassøy, printed on fabric and installed in space. Vannini exhibits a new installation combining lamp-worked glass and wax, informed by dissolving ice and chain-link fences observed around Storhaug park. Together, the artists create an environment of suspended transition and permeable boundaries.
Hope to see you at Studio 17 in Gamle Stavanger for the opening!
