YOO PEN (Going with the Flow)

George Orwell wrote in his seminal book 1984 “It´s a beautiful thing, the destruction of words” How does one speak of the unspeakable, without words, without a voice? Karl Ingar Røys´ research during 2018-19 in Bangkok has been concerned with how the personal and political overlap each other, creating different layers of reality and how these realities co-exist. How are power, history and identity performed and read in a period of transition.

In his presentation Karl Ingar Røys is going to talk about his ongoing research/film-project with also a look at some earlier practices.

Karl Ingar Røys film-project YOO PEN is supported by Fritt Ord – The Freedom of Expression Foundation Oslo, OCA Office for Contemporary Art Norway and Billedkunstnernes Vederlagsfond.
