Ingeborg Annie Lindahl:
Sørfjorden

Sørfjord is part of the Hardangerfjord known for its dramatic landscape with mountains, fjords and fruit trees. But in this beautiful place, a serious pollution is hidden in the Sørfjord. The water has a very high concentrations of heavy metals such as lead, mercury, dioxins, cadmium and PCBs from industrial industry in Odda.

Lindahl’s monumental black-and-white chalk drawing focuses on the contrasts of the beautiful landscape – which seems to be completely untouched by human activity – and the underlying serious problems of reckless overuse and pollution that are often ignored by closing our eyes to the problem.
