Sung Hwan Kim
“Dirt in the Shape of You”
9 October 2026 — 3 January 2027

For more than two decades, Sung Hwan Kim (b. 1975, Seoul; lives and works in Honolulu) has developed a distinctive artistic practice that intertwines video, music, storytelling, performance, drawing, sculpture, and architecture. His installations unfold as immersive environments where personal memories, historical events, folklore, rumours, and myths are woven together into poetic narratives that resist fixed interpretation.

Olof Marsja
“A Proposal on How to Mend a Broken Line”
9 October 2026 — 3 January 2027

Drawing on knowledge from forefathers and foremothers, duodji (Sámi crafts), mythology, and material traditions, Marsja creates works that move between the ancient and the contemporary, the personal and the collective, the remembered and the forgotten. For his exhibition at Bergen Kunsthall Olof Marsja presents a new constellation of sculptures and figures that inhabit a world where timelines overlap and established categories begin to dissolve.
