Verdensrommet is a newly-formed (2020), mutual aid, artistic research collective. It is spread across Hadeland, Oslo, Bergen and Trondheim and aims to address critical migratory, economic, and labor concerns of immigrant artists in Norway, using art, advocacy, guidance, and networkbuilding.
Our pilot project is an ongoing bi-weekly podcast series entitled “Verdensrommet: Conversations with Aliens of Extraordinary Ability”, which will be broadcasted over 6 months in 2021, with part financing from NBK. This podcast is our chosen method of research, defined by a pivotal question:
What infrastructures can we develop to ensure a sustainable, supportive, mutual aid network for immigrant artists and cultural workers?
We are currently working with Norske Billedkunstnere / The Norwegian Artists Union, Unge Kunstneres Samfund /Young Artists Association, Balansekunst and Her og Der to develop a collaborative online space and resource collection that can support non-EU artists and cultural workers navigate the immigration system and support each other through mutual hiring, economic redistribution and solidarity economies.
