30:ten

With Sayed Sattar Hasan
Tuesday 09.05.23

Welcome to a new edition of the lecture series 30:ten, where contemporary artists present their artistic practice in 30 minutes and ten pictures. In this edition you will meet Sayed Sattar Hasan. The presentation will be in English.

Sayed Sattar Hasan

Sayed Sattar Hasan (b.1979, UK) has lived and worked in Oslo since 2018. He has an MA from Goldsmiths, London (2009). His practice is process-based and freely uses different media to suit his ideas. His current approach could be described as post-pop, conceptual craft, but that could change. Hasan explores themes such as belonging, nationalism and identity creation, which are often interwoven with his own biography and told with a degree of humour.

While living in Norway, he has exhibited his work at the National Museum, North Norwegian Museum of Art, Intercultural Museum, Sogn og Fjordane Art Museum, Bomuldsfabrikken and held a studio at Oslo City Hall (2019-22).

30:ten

The artist talks 30:ten invite you to exclusive insights into a series of contemporary art practices. Our student panel has selected eight active artists who, within thirty minutes and ten pictures, get to present themselves and their work. After the lectures, we will open for questions from the audience. The lectures are held one Tuesday a month in the KH cinema and are free and open to everyone.

For the occasion, Lofthus Samvirkelag offers an artist discount to all participants on presentation of a ticket.

Thanks to Sparebankstiftelsen DNB for making the project possible.

Adin Mušić

I live in Oslo and was born and raised in Kristiansand. With a background in a bachelor's degree from the Academy of Fine Arts at the University of the Arts in Oslo, I started my Master's education at the same place in 2022. I also wanted to be part of the student panel in order to have the opportunity to introduce young people to contemporary art and in that way create a wider knowledge of the art world.

I am 25 years old and taking a bachelor's degree in ceramics at KHiO. In my own work as an artist, I am currently interested in how the senses affect our everyday life, and especially how important tactile experiences are for the sense of sight.

I wanted to be on the panel because I myself am bad at prioritizing lectures and exhibitions. Through my involvement, I hope to make it easier for others, in the same situation, to be able to participate in such events.
