Theory
"I use art to express views on contemporary society. Some works are executed as exercises in arts-based research. Artworks developed as practical visualizations of reserach theories and methods can also function outside of academia as independent results to be experienced in art exhbitions."
- Liv Fjellsol, 2023.
The visual artist and theoretician continuously attends interdisciplinary lectures and seminars, and maintains her passion for music and culture, to combine a general urge for lifelong learning while developing her works. The pandemic social distance requirements delayed several of Fjellsol's beloved international cooperations and allowed time restart university studies to dig even deeper into theory which has inspired several works of art and resulted in a few credit points from passing the following courses and writing articles:
