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

Lona Hansen // Shapes of Awareness

April 29, 2016 @19:00 - May 1, 2016 @17:00 CEST Exhibition, Opening

About

(English version below)

29.04 – 01.05
Vernissage Fredag 29. April kl. 19:00 Studio 17, Nytorget 17, Stavanger

Lørdag 30.04 og søndag 01.05 kl. 12:00-17:00

I utstillingen Shapes of Awareness på Studio 17 presenterer Lona Hansen et utvalg skulpturer og collager, samt stedsspesifikke installasjoner. I sine arbeider utforsker hun bevissthet og fysisk erfaring i relasjon til materialet og rommet. Hun er interessert i det immaterielle og formløse, derfor også̊ form; form som en måte å artikulere mellomrommene, vise potensialet og spenningen i det tomme og formløse. Arbeidene referer til spatial reasoning- tester – tester som undersøker evnen til å forstå forholdet mellom objekter, visualisere og mentalt manipulere rom. Motsetninger som fravær og tilstedeværelse, konkret og immateriell, subtilt og monumentalt, volum og masse ligger til grunn for Hansens utforskning.

Lona Hansen (f. 1988 i Oslo) bor og arbeider i Bergen. Hun har bachelor i billedkunst fra Kunstakademiet i Trondheim (NTNU) og fullførte i 2014 master i kunst ved Kunst- og designhøgskolen i Bergen.

Lona Hansen har tidligere deltatt i utstillinger ved bl.a. Gråmølna/ Trondheim Kunstmuseum, Hordaland kunstsenter, One Night Only / UKS og senest utstillingen Spirituell tid og rom i Visningsrommet USF med kollegene Daniel Slåttnes og Sara Rönnbäck.

Shapes of Awareness
29.04- 01.05
Opening Friday 29 April 19:00 Studio 17, Nytorget 17, Stavanger

Saturday 30.04 and Sunday 01.05 12:00-17:00

For the exhibition Shapes of Awareness at Studio 17, Lona Hansen will present a selection of sculptural works and collages in addition to site-specific installations. In her practice, Hansen explores consciousness and the physical experience in relation to the material and the space. She is interested in the immaterial and formlessness, therefore also in form. Form as a way to articulate space, and show the potential of the negative space. The works refer to spatial reasoning tests – tests used to map ones ability to understand the spatial relations between objects and to visualize and mentally manipulate space. Contradictions like absence and presence, concrete and intangible, subtle and monumental, volume and mass underlie Hansen’s exploration.

Lona Hansen Hansen (b. 1988, Oslo) lives and works in Bergen. She holds a BFA from the Trondheim Academy of Art and an MFA from the Bergen Academy of Art and Design.

Some previous exhibitions include Gråmølna/ Trondheim Art Museum, Hordaland kunstsenter, One Night Only / UKS and recently the exhibition Spirituell tid og rom at Visningsrommet USF with colleagues Daniel Slåttnes og Sara Rönnbäck.
