In her solo exhibition “Standard Primitives”, Magnhild Øen Nordahl presents three new works made especially for this exhibition at Hordaland kunstsenter: A sculpture series, an animation film and a video work. Filming and editing is supported by BEK.
In the video work The Distance to the Horizon, we find ourselves at sea, with only waves and the horizon in sight. The work documents traveling from a given point at sea, all the way to the point one initially could see as the horizon.
Is it possible to experience the roundness of the earth, to sense it through our corporeal perception and ability of movement? Could you get closer to understanding taught theory and cosmic proportions through the use of tools in your hands?
