osloBIENNALEN FIRST EDITION
Mette Edvardsen “Time has fallen asleep in the afternoon sunshine” – living books as letters
Mette EdvardsenWhat is a book? Is it the cover, the paper, the typeface, the language type, the sentences or the words? If we turn the question around, we might ask where a book ends. Mette Edvardsen’s project Time has fallen asleep in the afternoon sunshine consists of a library of living books, a reading room, an exhibition, a workspace, a publisher, a bookshop. Now a new element is added to the project: the handwritten letter. Visit oslobiennalen.no between 28.11-05.12 if you wish to receive a letter.
