Bjørn Hegardt (NO) is based in Berlin/Oslo and Theo Ågren (SE) is based in Sätila outside Gothenburg. They have had an ongoing artistic partnership since 1998 when they studied together at the Art Academy in Trondheim. With a common interest in exploring various natural and mythical phenomena, they explore space and the limits of space. Everyday objects seemingly get a life of their own outside our control. The site-specific installations show frozen moments of interiors in motion, often defying the force of gravity or on the brink of collapse.
