Echoing Tracks

The three performance artists Amelia Beavis-Harrison, Anne-Liis Kogan and Pavlina Lucas are invited by Drammen Kunstforening to create site specific performances for the area around Bragernes Torg. To develop the works the artists have drawn inspiration from the local history, which is reflected in the city architecture and public art.  The event is curated by Tanja Thorjussen of PAO.

Pavlina Lucas studied photojournalism before obtaining her master degree in architecture from Harvard University Graduate School of Design. She has collaborated with renowned Swiss architect Peter Zumthor on a number of projects, including ones for Walter De Maria and Louise Bourgeois. Lucas operates on the conviction that art as praxis is a singular and unforeseeable journey of exploration that defies borders between disciplines.
Her work spans across photography, architecture, installation, performance, and creative writing, and has been exhibited and published internationally. In March 2014 Lucas concluded her PhD project The Photographic Absolute: An Architectural Beginning, the first artistic research project completed at the Oslo School of Architecture and Design. www.pavlinalucas.com
