Sojourn in White -installation-
New Collaborative Exhibition Featuring International Artists selected from the Artist Residency Program at Saksala ArtRadius
During the winter 2007-2008 an interesting collaborative project was devised between
two artists from Iran and the Netherlands. Behrouz Rae and Ilse van den Berk have
been working together on a project entitled
SOJOURN IN WHITE related to a stopover in Saksala during winter time. This project
challenges the artists to go out of the box from their usual practice and work in a dialogue
with the
work of the other. The result is an installation presented in different rooms of
Saksala with objects
found in the Saksala building and drawings/paintings where the artists have
followed the creative steps of each other. Behrouz Rae and Ilse van den Berk
responded to each other through different layers of each separate works. The
curator of the project, Claire Watson, is supervising the process and even though she has returned to Australia she is in close
contact to guide the artists through the project's the development.
