Ingeborg Annie Lindahl & Marte Huke: «Om når blir nå» (If When Becomes Now)
Visual artist Ingeborg Annie Lindahl and poet Marte Huke explore how line, language, and traces can open up new reflections on humanity's relationship with nature, time, and presence in the exhibition «Om når blir nå». The exhibition presents new works in an installation combining drawing and text, created specifically for BABEL.
