26—27 April

Carsten Aniksdal

(He/him)
Address: Jarlsborgveien 50, 0377 Oslo
Floor: 1
The studio is open Sunday 27 April from 12-17

I work mainly with camera-based techniques; photography and film, but also spatial sound installations, I exercise a lingering language, where architectural environments and human beings are often at the center. In my works, I explore time as a non-linear, infinite dimension, where images and sound form spaces that point towards dreams, the symbolic and the imaginary.

Photography, video, film, sound, music, installation
