Embodied Architecture: Walking the Inside
Galleri Kronborg, Bergen (NO)
Opening, Saturday, 6th June, 4pm (Start of the walk at the top of Fløibanen funicular in Bergen)
The project Embodied Architecture: Walking the Inside engages with themes of corporeality, architecture, and drawing. It responds to the gallery’s isolation and exposure to weather and time with a gesture that is shelter, trace, and remembrance — a living dialogue between space, body, and material. In a performative act, a wearable architectural structure is carried uphill — from the city Bergen, through the landscape, to the gallery, located on the top of a mountain, itself.
Shaped to the scale of the body, this temporary shelter becomes a moving, inhabitable form. Inside the gallery, it unfolds like a second skin, stretched across the space so that the room appears to wear itself. Inspired by the floor plan of Galleri Kronborg, Ulrike Mohr’s “Embodied Architecture: Walking the Inside” is constructed according to the dimensions of the gallery’s interior walls.
