Cleaning Growth; Parking Statoil" was a transformative journey that spanned seven days, starting from the bustling Stock Market in Oslo and culminating at the Norwegian Oil capital, Stavanger, covering a distance of 563 km. It served as an intricate artistic endeavor, delving into a profound and multifaceted subject—the Norwegian oil and gas industry. By shedding light on the intricate connections between politics, finance, states, and its people. The project aimed to expose the persisting shortcomings of our financial value system, which continues to prioritize short-term growth. At its core, the project captured the essence of a inner dialogue—an ongoing and self-reflective monologue that unfolded within me as I embarked on this arduous journey bridging the gap between the stock market and the oil museum. Through this exploration, I pondered the profound impact such an inward and outward pilgrimage could have on my body and my perception. It celebrated the symbiosis between the moving body and the intellectual substance of thoughts that unfurled along the way.
In the tradition of a pilgrimage, which often symbolizes prayer for the recovery of loved ones (both human, animal, and plant) through self-sacrifice and renunciation, "Cleaning Growth; Parking Statoil" metaphorically intertwined the ever-expanding reach of the financial global world into politics and our daily lives. In many ways, this intertwining compromises the very essence of democracy.
