Welcome to the opening of the exhibition with a panel discussion.
Free admission.
What happens when paper, light and space are used to explore emotions, friendship and resilience?
Through a workshop at Kunsthall Trondheim, young people have experimented with paper as a spatial material and light as an artistic expression. The result is an exhibition Friday 17th-Sunday 19th April.
The opening on Friday 17th April starts with a tour followed by a panel discussion with participants and various professionals. We present the experiences with the work and raise our eyes to larger questions:
How do young people experience pressure today? What role can artistic processes play when experiences, emotions and relationships are explored in artistic communities?
Together with the young people who have participated, we will meet artists and professionals within the fields of art, research and health for a conversation about what can occur at the intersection between artistic processes and young people's experiences with mental health.
