I can’t quite place it

In this work, Mette Edvardsen will set up a table in a public space outdoors and invite passers-by in various encounters. The table, as something out of context, will be a place to meet, to work, to watch, to talk. The table will suggest different spaces and encourage attempts to rethink context. People can come and go at any moment.

The work of Mette Edvardsen is situated within the performing arts field, but also explores other media and formats such as video and books.
