Welcome to a journey into the world of I Craft, I Travel Light - a group exhibition about arts and crafts, renewal, revival and tradition.
 

The exhibition presents works from 15 Norwegian and Russian artists. Inspired by indigenous cultures in the north, their rich tradition and ability to use local resources, the artists use barch, raindeer horns, fish skin and wood, as well as recycled items and found objects.

The exhibition title denotes the value of local and sustainable resources and points to nomadic culture – a lifestyle in perpetual motion. What do we take with us when moving from one place to another? Which values and expressions are handed down, transformed and maintained? We ask these and other relevant questions and together try to answer. In addition you'll get to know about the artists, the work methods and the traditions.

Free of charge and open to all
