LIFE-BOATS by MARIT BENTHE NORHEIM with music by Geir Johnson
SEE THE TELEVISION BROADCAST ABOUT LIFE-BOATS ON DAGSREVYEN NRK1, FROM 25/10 2011
“Life-Boats” invite the viewers to experience something new and unexpected, which they will not have experienced in either the artistic world or in their everyday lives. ”Life-Boats” can enhance new lines of movement in the environment and institute new directions of seeing. And they will contain a special sensory experience, which will promote sides of our inner and outer reality, which we often overlook and possibly don’t know at all. The art creates meaning in the public space, but does so in a special way. In a world where there are often contradictions between population groups and nationalities, ”Life Boats” will create new life-affirming relations between people and symbolize the desire for fellowship and respect for one another, which is always at the top of our agenda, but which we often have had problems with realizing."
