ODDS TRADER & MAGNUM OPUS at The Arctic Arts Festival by Sol&Sten, 2017

Marita Isobel Solberg & Trond Ansten

From the series COD, LIFE & LOVE we presented a performance in two parts at the festival exhibition SUBSISENCE during The Arctic Arts Festival in 2017.

Cod has been our greatest export article for the last millennium, all until fossil fuel was discovered. It used to give us food, oil, paint and glue and is the reason why your wine is clear and shining. In our alchemic process we explore the fundamental components of our old friend from the ocean.

In the first part «ODDS TRADER» we`ll go through dissection and maturing of the substances within the fish. In the second part «MAGNUM OPUS» there will be blackening and transmutation in order to purity its components.

What is there of unknown potential that Cod may provide?
We give you prospects of an old friend in the name of COD, LIFE & LOVE!
