About

Contemporary Art Stavanger consists of an online art journal as well as a physical residency program for critics, writers and researchers. Through our work, we aim to contribute meaningful conversation relevant to the Stavanger region’s art scene, while at the same time connecting the content to a larger national and international discourse – we therefore publish in both Norwegian and English. In addition to reviews, essays, and interviews, we explore the expansive possibilities of CAS’ online platform and investigate different ways of working with writers, residencies, and the format of art writing and criticism. We at CAS are dedicated to presenting a wide range of perspectives, voices, and subject matter. Read more

Anamorphosis 2.0 by Camilla Edström Ödemark

February 16, 2017 @18:00 - February 18, 2017 @17:00 CET Exhibition

About

Working mainly with video, media- and visual artist Camilla Edström Ödemark takes an interest in the construction of group identities and their dynamic relation to the Self. Her work often adress the representation of norms in popular culture and myth as a way of maintaining Western advantage in a globalized world.

During her stay at AIR Sandnes, Edström Ödemark has initiated a project, focusing on the myth of Narcissus. In her work, Narcissus, the young hunter of ancient Greek mythology who fell in love with his own reflection, comes to represent Western society. Caught up in the filter bubbles of social media, the self-admiring hunt for more likes and the rise of far-right extremism and xenophobia, Edström Ödemark describes Western discourse as a system of codes, mirroring eurocentrism and colonial norms. In this system, identity becomes a self-reflective project, a modern Narcissus. The exhibition Anamorphosis2.0 is a work-in-progress presenting Edström Ödemark’s progress at AIR Sandnes.

Camilla Edström Ödemark (b. 1985, Finland) is a Malmö- based artist with a BFA from Konstfack, Sweden. Her work has recently been shown at Studio17 (Stavanger), Galleri CC (Malmö) and Spriten Kunsthall (Skien). In 2015 she received the Swedish Cultural Foundation´s working grant and after finishing her residency at AIR Sandnes, she´s invited for a one-month stay at Hordalands Kunstsenter in Bergen.

The exhibition will be open 17-18 February, 13.00-17.00. The artist will be present.
