Seasonal exhibition 2026:
"Thinking freely, as one walks on earth" is Kunsthall Dikemark's second major production at Dikemark after moving from Asker city center in 2025. Kunsthall Dikemark previous Trafo Kunsthall has operated an exhibition space at Dikemark since 2020 with two annual productions. This year's theme is mental health, the works are experienced both indoors and outdoors, in close dialogue with the buildings and the history of the area. What does mental health mean? How can we understand this through art? The art gallery's activities are seasonal, with a main emphasis on one large production during the summer months.
"Thinking freely, as one walks on earth" takes its title from the text "Today is yesterday is today" by Sigrun Slapgard's poetic text about Gitte Dæhlin's artistry. The seasonal exhibition shows sculptures by Gitte Dæhlin, video works by Mohamed Mohamed, a unique commissioned work composed by Eivind Buene, and works from the Dikemark Collection. At Dikemark psykiatriske sykehusmuseum "The Path of Truth through Light and Darkness" is on display – a selection from the collection of works created by former patients. The exhibition is co-produced with the museum. Curated by Anne Siv Falkenberg Pedersen.
