Vlatka Horvat’s artistic activities have roots in the performing arts and she works with references to both early performance art and Arte Povera from the 1960s and 1970s. Horvat’s artistic project is process-oriented; she conducts repetitive investigations of spatial properties and relations. At Bergen Kunsthall the artist continues with her well-tried artistic strategy where the method is to pick existing things apart: to cut away, fold/bend or weave together photographic, textual or physical elements. This way she creates new, fictional possibilities for exploring the relations between space, body and object.
