Residency-in-residence: Clementine Edwards

De fleråriga stipendiaterna i Pro Artibus residensprogram Snäcksund Villan har erbjudits möjligheten att bjuda in professionella konstnärer eller sakkunniga för samarbete och tvärvetenskapligt arbete med konceptet residency-in-residence. Läs om vårt senaste gäst på engelska nedan!

The 21st residency-in-residence program guest is Clementine Edwards.

During her residence at the Croft in November 2021, Clementine worked alongside long-term Pro Artibus resident Lukas Malte Hoffmann towards their online-only exhibition, Schlimberlake & Schlieber, at Light-harvesting Complex, Vantaa. Clementine is a Rotterdam-based artist from Naarm/Melbourne. Clementine’s practice is guided by the ongoing research line ‘material kinship’, which thinks material beyond extraction and possession, and kin and kin-making beyond bloodlines.

For Schlimberlake & Schlieber, Clementine and Lukas came together for a duo exhibition of illuminated sculptures honouring the end of the agrarian year and its main harvest.

In the lead up to this long-deferred collaboration between friends, Clementine and Lukas have kept in contact behind glowing screens. Being spatially separated, Lukas turned into light for Clementine, and also the other way around. The question that has guided them is, how to work with light in such a way that it re-releases the social energy it carries?

Now, with the darkening days, the two come together to present a playful, light-soaked installation, a procession of lanterns of sorts, at Light-harvesting Complex, Vantaa.

The title of the exhibition relates to people they have seen a lot of but haven’t been in touch with.

Light-harvesting Complex is a curatorial project dwelling in a greenhouse in Vantaa, run by Sara Blosseville and Victor Gogly. It is a living place evolving with the seasons, a place for alignment between beings in growth, where artworks are surrounded by life, which highlights the vibrancy dwelling in their matter.
