Robin og C. Matthew Luther kombinerer video, fotografi, trykk, skulptur og performance for å skape ulike uttrykk som strekker seg fra små, intime fotografiske studier av omgivelsene, til større skulpturelle inngrep i landskapet. Arbeidene deres opptar menneskelige forhold innen ulike samfunn og menneskers forhold til naturen.
“During our visit on Sula Island we experienced our unique surroundings through photographic and video studies. Small Inkjet and Photogravure Prints illustrate our explorations as outsiders in this new space. The video Someone from Sula combines the stories and memories of Sula residents with imagery of the landscape and playful, narrative interventions in the geography.
During our residency at LKV we constructed a large sculpture of a whale using recycled cardboard boxes. The wearable, near life size whale will be paraded through the streets of Trondheim before being displayed in Babel. The whale’s journey through Trondheim will be documented and presented through Video and Inkjet Prints”.
