A floor painting over two rooms visualizing an overview of the very same area of prison buildings, prison walls and roads. Painted after an printed Google Eart map (under) with acrylic paint directly on the glue-covered concrete floor.
During 2008/09 a few buildings at Bjørgvin prison, outside Bergen, where used for many projects and art exhibitions before they were restored to prison buildings again. In November 2008 Jon Arne Mogstad, Jeremy Welsh and me arranged the workshop and exhibition Site Specific Revisited with invited professors and students from the academies of Reykjavijk and Copenhagen. With a lot help from the inmates two big houses were filled with site specific made installations, videos and paintings.
