My field of work is the center's exhibitions. My background is partly academic (BA degree with majors in English, History, and Theatre Studies) and partly artistic (Scenography education from LTU, Sweden, and Production Design from the Norwegian Film School).

My core activity at the center is related to exhibition work:

  • Program Planning
  • Curating
  • Design and Production
  • Administrasjon av utstillingsvirksomheten

 

Before joining the HL Center, I worked with scenography related to film production, documentary film production, graphic design, and exhibition design.

The exhibition was shown, among other places, at Hå Old Vicarage, Bryggen Museum, and Setesdal Museum. Parts of it are included in the permanent exhibition at the Western Norwegian Emigration Center.
