Eline McGeorge
(Hun/henne)
Addresse: Veterinærhøgskolen Atelierfelleskap, Ullevålsveien 72, bygg 12, 0454 Oslo
Etasje: 1-2
Rom nr: 111-113
Atelieret er åpent søndag 27. april kl 12-17
Gjennom mitt arbeid engasjerer jeg meg i spørsmål knyttet til demokratiske prosesser, politiske og økonomiske verdisyn og miljø. Inspirert av spekulativ fiksjon, interseksjonell idearv og selvorganisering som strategi, bruker jeg fiktive formidlingsmetoder side om side med dokumentarisk og faktabasert metoder. Tematiske og materialbaserte undersøkelser foregår parallelt og i ulike teknikker; improviserte håndverksteknikker, både tradisjonelle og digitale medier, direkte refererende dokumentariske metoder, tekst og publikasjoner.
Mitt arbeid bygger på interdisiplinært samarbeid og internasjonalt feltarbeid. Jeg er opptatt av å ta del i offentlig aktuell debatt, og av hvordan kunstnerisk refleksjon kan bidra til denne.
Jeg har og stilt ut i etablerte kunstinstitusjoner nasjonalt og internasjonalt siden endt Master of Fine Art, Goldsmiths, London 2000.
Nylig avsluttet jeg et langvarig prosjekt med to parallelle separat utstillinger i Oslo, (Kunstnerforbundet og Femtensesse), som også skal vises i vår i London (Hollybush Gardens) og under kunstmessen i Basel.
Jeg er representert internasjonalt av galleriet Hollybush Gardens, London og av Femtensesse, Oslo.
Blandet medier




I mitt atelier
Nå er jeg i oppstart av et nytt prosjekt. Kunstnerisk forskning, utprøvninger og arbeider i prosess vil være å se i atelieret mitt samt en nylig utgitt kunsnterbok og noen av arbeidene fra de seneste utstillingene.
Jeg jobber for øyeblikket med tema som omhandler norske elver som handelsvare på det internasjonale energimarkede.
En annen tematisk tråde jeg skal følge i mine nye arbeider, tar utgangspunkt i migrerende fugler som passerer Mølen, deres internasjonale migrasjonsruter som knytter sammen kontinenter og det som foregår der som forårsaker raskt minkende populasjoner.
Noen arbeider fra nylig avsluttet prosjekt vil også være å se i atelieret.
