Black Project 2010

Black Project 2010
Oronsko Center for contemporary Sculpture, Poland

Black Project is a wooden sculpture in the shape and size of an abstracted confessional – displayed in a dark, empty space facing the corner. The sculpture is made as a confined object covered in black car lacquer. In Black Project the viewer will instead of being able to enter this confessional to privately confess a sinful matter, be met with a confessional reflecting their own image in a perfect black surface. A strong reference is the image of the black mirror used for scrying (Divination based on an analysis of reflections in water, or on polished black mirror or metal). Scrying became widespread by the 5th century AD and was condemned by the church

A black project is a secretive project, like classified military programs or narcotics or police sting operations.

Atlas Movie 2011 by and with Nahoko Kudo and Edvine Larssen at Tromsø kunstforening, consists of a series of individual, site specific works by both artists. The entire project was carefully planned as a metaphorical movie to walk through, where the individual installations are hard to separate

A sculptural/architectonic intervention made from 35.000 meters of black woolen yarn running trough the whole show, hugging the entire core of the building.

Trough a non-tactile material; colour, Phantom I and II spreads onto its near surroundings, architecture, other artworks as well as onto the viewers. Phantom I and II allows the boundaries between the individual works in Atlas Movie to fade out

.

By creating architectural interventions, the exhibition introduces dialogues between the artworks individually created by two artists.
Edvine Larssen presented 3 installations as presented here, all planned specifically for Atlas Movie, all built in situ at Tromsø Kunstforening.
