A Space Journey

BLURB:

A Space Journey er det første verket i Ingvild Isaksens overordnede prosjekt Arkivet, hvor hun utforsker alternative metoder for å dokumentere rom gjennom en kroppslig scenografisk praksis, med fokus på samspillet mellom omgivelsene våre og kroppen.

Verket er en deltakende scenografi som inviterer deg til å erfare, oversette, bevege deg og bli beveget av dine nærmeste omgivelser.

Gjennom en fysisk og imaginær opplevelse søker arbeidet å skape et møtepunkt mellom ulike rom – rundt oss og i oss. Det er en intim opplevelse mellom deg og rommet du velger å utforske, og for et øyeblikk også verden utenfor dere begge.

Du velger selv hvilket rom du vil delta med, gjerne et sted du ønsker å (gjen)oppdage. Reisen gjennomføres alene, men inkluderer en telefonsamtale med en profesjonell mottaker. For å kunne gjennomføre dette ber vi deg starte til avtalt tid.

A Space Journey by MA student Ingvild Isaksen is the first work in her overarching project Arkivet in which she is exploring alternative methods of documenting spaces through an embodying practice of scenography, negotiating awareness between our surroundings and our own bodies. Arkivet is a growing source of material generated from these methods. 

A Space Journey is a participatory scenography that invites you to embody, translate, move, and be moved by your immediate surroundings. 

Through this physical and imaginary experience the work aspires to gradually create a meeting point of several spaces, around and within us. It is an intimate experience between you and the space you’ve chosen to go on the journey with, and for a brief moment to the world outside you both. 

You choose the space to participate with, ideally somewhere you would like to (re) discover. The journey is done in your own company but involves a phone call to a professional phone call receiver. In order to provide this service, we ask you to start on time. 

Book a journey for Friday, Saturday, or Sunday between 15:00 and 20:00. There are 12 journeys every day, first come first serve. After booking you will receive a personal link immediately, this is your ticket. When the clock hits your time, click the link and off you go. The journey starts on the hour and the link will close 15 minutes past. Due to limited capacity please try to stick to the time you book, or cancel in good time ahead. 

We recommend accessing the link through a computer to best experience the journey. If you don’t receive an e-mail after booking, contact us at info@arkivet.space.
