Our World
The viewer finds himself in a big, crowded city at the beginning of the exhibition. The noise of the cars, towering buildings and masses of people seem threatening, a person alone in a world that is too complex. Thousands of pedestrians gather the streets, seemingly becoming a human wall. The world is noisy, and as we see rushing cars go by in the night, the visitor feels alone in a mass of people, buildings, cars and cell phones. Where is nature? How can we find silence in such a busy world? The exhibition lateron gives relief by revealing paintings of Italian beaches, Irish trees and Norwegian sky formations to the viewer longing for peace and quiet. The art film then guides him through this story.

We Came From Water
Long, long time ago life began in the deep depths of our oceans. Surrounded by inpenetrable water far below the surface we bothered with mere existence, the art of survival. Still so many various forms of life evolved. And after eons of time our oceans boasted Humpback whales, schools of Northern Pikes, starfish and octopus. As different as we were, we were all floating through water. Seemingly we must have got a bit bored by all of it, so we decided to grow feet and take a stroll on the beaches. After which we made the woods our home.

We Grew Up In The Woods
In a sense a thick forest can feel like an ocean. It comforts me with shelter, a special calm soothes my thoughts. After walking in a forest for a while I forget most of what troubles me while being in a city. These trees, moss, and leaves feel like home, and I seem to intuitively remember how my ancestors grew up in the woods thousands of years ago. This is the place where we heal, recharge. Still humanity, just like our fellow cats, always must know whats behind the next corner. And so it looked up the sky one day, and invented mechanical wings.

We Are Reaching For The Skies
Our planet is full of people now. Even Greenland ambitious folk are moving to these days. Our drive to reach the stars, settle Mars, or walk on the moon only partly stems from an urge to look around the next corner. The sky fascinates us, for we imagine it to be filled with stars from far away and planets settled by beings just like us. However we haven´t met them yet. And deep in our souls we are afraid to find out if we are indeed alone in this universe.
