ARIVER






Dedicated to the volunteer tree growing out from a small portal below the Kolstadgata 7 apartment block. Invitation to a nocturnal gathering in Kolstadgata. Evocation of river engaging the emotional landscape. Time traveling tattoo ritual on the old bus stop. Tangential random walk announced in the adshel. Slow graffiti challenge commercial authority. A space where movement of the audience sank into memory.

Wading in daily life again, approximately fractalesque. My commute crystallizes via a ghostly vessel. Forecast suggests ephemeral ooze and feedback loops. Accurate needle reverb lingers in the pocket's pores. Offshoots sprout from our tears. Friction, dripping. Maybe a name for this collective.


Ariver is an artwork by Slekke Wørld in the form of a noctural happening during the Summer Solstice, June 21 2025, 22:43 - 03:54. Ariver is a site-specific group performance.

Ariver is part of 'Weaving Places' (Stedsveven), a project where Tenthaus Art Collective is invited to explore three public spaces in Tøyen and Grønland; Gartnerløkka, Rudolf Nilsen's square, and Kolstadgata. Weaving Places is commisioned by the City of Oslo Art Collection and curated by Mari F. Sundet.
