Ellipse

2025
Installation with steel pipes, films, text and color photographs. 
ROM, Oslo, Norway


Ellipse at ROM is an immersive spatial film experience that addresses consumer culture and explores artistic strategies in the semi-public urban space. It consists of six different films, shown both as film on screen and as film on canvas in sculptural installations.

These short films, ranging from five to twenty minutes, unfold as diverse narratives, spanning multiple genres. Some adopt a documentary approach, while others lean toward performative expression.



Together, these cinematic glimpses trace an elliptical trajectory through the urban spaces linking Stovner Center to its surroundings.
