The film installation BLINK by Trondheim-based artist, Tuda Muda, moves between public and private spaces, seeing and being looked at, fact and fantasy, powerlessness and power. A large charcoal drawing in the gallery comes to life through a projection of a short film that combines drawn animations with footage shot in India – a context in which violence against women has been both widespread and a rallying cause for feminist advocacy. The film is told from the embodied perspective of a young woman who encounters sexual harassment in public and imagines flipping the script, thus reversing the gendered power asymmetries that continue to pervade domestic, public and as well as digital spheres.

Refresh is an continuously evolving exhibition that will develop across public spaces at Kunstnernes Hus over the course of two months. Organized by the Sudanese political cartoonist and artist Khalid Albaih, the exhibition draws its temporality from Albaih’s daily practice of publishing cartoons and comics about Sudanese events as well as global affairs online. Refresh interweaves political commentary with personal narrative and collaborative works and seeks to engage visitors in a dialogue about identity, political events, and cultural memory.

The exhibition is generously sponsored by Fritt Ord, and part of a broader collaboration with the foundation.
