Turn on - Tune in - The Exhibition Tuned is online

Landscapes and other elements are tampered with, in fact altered, by bringing forth rotated and flipped elements from the images' roots themselves. In doing so the drama and the mysterious "drive" in the pictures evaporates as the spectator is left only with a hollow, fictitious impression and the notion of being misguided. He must then start to look again. And it's much harder this time around. What will the pictures reveal now? Is the viewer forced to make a second opinion?

Beyond the innocence. Beyond the fasade there is a confusion in which the project seeks a statement. The emerging question on what basis the evolving processes of today's Western societies are being shaped. How deep their roots are. How well fonded the nature of the thinking is. The West, and Norway in particular, can easily hide behind the picture of a democratic, embracing and caring world by giving large sums of money to the countries of the third world. Politicians claim heroic efforts have been exposed. Citizens cry along. In this bash of hysterical and sometimes unconscious search for our self-contained wealth we use all means necessary to cover our greed and maintain our welfare.
This is the power of the computer medium. The medium which has proven capable of moving mountains and dividing seas now calculates our next step. It increasingly becomes more of an autonomous object and a central part of our lives (or do we come to be the central part of the comuter's life?). Our addictive relations to the computer both seperates us from his autonomy and at the same time tunes our ideas with his logic nature. We might be mistaken in our strive to be tuned.
