About
10 of the most promising artists from Wales and Denmark have been invited by The Suitcase Project to create works which fit into a suitcase.The Suitcase Project initiative comprises of an extended period of international collaboration between artists, curators and venues; the creation of new artwork and a cultural exchange and exhibition. The project has been developed around ideas of portability, travel and transition. In keeping with the theme of the exhibition, five artists based in Denmark and five artists based in Wales have been invited to create works which fit into a suitcase, travelling with them to their exhibiting destination. The exhibitions will be open for one week only and the artists will return with their work in their suitcases at the end of the week.
The 10 artists contributing: Lilibeth Cuenca Rasmussen; Morten Dysgaard; Sean Edwards; Carwyn Evans; Rabab Ghazoul; Rebecca Gould; Violeta Miranda; Torben Ribe; Jennie Savage and Sixten Therkildsen were selected by Liberty Paterson and Thor Nørmark-Larsen for the high quality of their work and their ability to interpret the themes of portability, travel and transition in diverse and thought-provoking ways.
