Velkommen til åpningen av Nimble Weavers, fredag 22. mai kl. 18:00!
Hvordan blir verdien omgivelsene våre har for oss påvirket av kontinuerlige endringer i landskapet? Hvilken rolle og agens føler de som bor i landskapet at de har? Hvordan forhandler vi tilhørighet og motstridende syn på naturens verdi innenfor moderne energilandskap?
Dette er spørsmål som står sentralt i Ase Brunborg Lies utstilling Nimble Weavers.
Nimble Weavers er også tittelen på det ettårige tverrfaglige samarbeidet mellom kunstner Ase Brunborg Lie og forskningsprosjektet ACTIONABLE ved Universitetet i Bergen, som har funnet sted i Nordhordland UNESCO biosfæreområde.
En serie lyttevandringer, forskningsintervjuer og andre undersøkelser har dannet grunnlaget for arbeidene som vises på Hordaland kunstsenter - gjennom hele sommeren.

Join us for the opening of Nimble Weavers, Friday 22 May at 18:00!
How is the value of our surroundings affected by a landscape under continuous change? What role and agency do local inhabitants feel they have? How do we negotiate conflicting values of nature and belonging within modern energy landscapes?
These are central questions in Ase Brunborg Lie’s exhibition Nimble Weavers.
Nimble Weavers is also the title of the one-year interdisciplinary collaboration between artist Ase Brunborg Lie and the research project ACTIONABLE at the University of Bergen, conducted in the Nordhordland UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.
A series of listening walks and research interviews have formed the foundation for the works in this year’s summer exhibition at Hordaland Kunstsenter.

We invite you to join us for Klosteret-fest, a final gathering to share food, exchange stories, and celebrate the neighborhood. This event marks the conclusion of our time at Hordaland Kunstsenter, where we will present an overview of everything we have explored together over the past weeks. From the monastery’s ancient roots to the speculative visions for the parking lot, we’ll look back at the collective archive we’ve built and celebrate the (C)AR(E)CHITECTURE of Klosteret.
For these two hours, we will physically occupy the parking spots in front of Hordaland Kunstsenter, transforming this zone into a long dinner table for the community. Please join us on May 20th from 17:00 to 19:00 for this celebration. We have space for 15 people around the table (link for the registration is in our bio), so we look forward to sharing a meal and reflecting on the future of the space with you. In case of rain, we will simply move the table inside to the Kunstsenter kitchen.

Tusen takk til alle naboer, kjære venner og nysgjerrige fuglekikkere som kom på åpningen av Conference of the Birds og Fuglehagen 💚
Vi gleder oss masse til å jobbe med dette prosjektet i hele 2026. Fortsettelsen kommer snart!
I mellomtiden håper vi på finvær i Bergen, så solen kan titte frem og den nye utsiktsplassen bli godt brukt 🪶
Tusen takk til HKS som har invitert oss,
til Nayara Leite for bilder fra dagen,
til Fellesverkstedet i Bergen for hjelp med produksjon og Freya Josephine Coursey for informasjon om fuglene på Nordnes.
