Eili Bråstad works with film, video, collage, installation and live visual performance. With a queer gaze she explores time, identity and movement, often connected to her Kven and Sami background.

In my studio
One will probably notice that studio is my workspace, as I am in the final stages of preparations for a performance and exhibition at Kunstbanken in Hamar. However I welcome everyone to stop by to see what I’m doing.
Planned projects and exhibitions
-6th of May – Live visual performance in collaboration with Arve Henriksen at AnJazz Hamar, followed by an exhibition opening in Kunstbanken the day after.
-June: Satellite exhibition in Vadsø in connection to the Kven (Kvääni) Biennale. Here I am exhibiting three video works.
-August: Exhibition at Nord-Troms Museum in Nordreisa. I will exhibit a series of collages.
In addition to the concrete plans, I also have several film and video projects in development.
