Farm is a work that chronicles the journey of two artists, Eva Rosa Hollup and LEA, who grew up in contrasting cultural landscapes in the East (South Korea) and the West (Norway).

​

Their journey began in Sleneset, a small fishing village in Northern Norway, where they immersed themselves in the rugged landscape of the Norwegian Sea to explore the essence of human existence in contemporary society. Farm is an essay film capturing the dialogue between Eva Rosa and LEA on the theme of "the form of waves." Through the fluid movement and transformations of waves, the work links the natural cycle with the artificial environment of a salmon farm, delving into a profound exploration of the essence of humanity. Waves serve as a bridge connecting themes of nature and humanity, race and gender, human identity, and also engage with complex modern issues like borders, globalisation, microorganisms, and climate change.

​

This piece invites the audience into a shared stream of consciousness, offering a multisensory experience through an immersive black-box installation with a soundscape and projection mapping. The installation evokes the feeling of being submerged in a salmon farm, with soft narration resonating quietly throughout the space.

The Farm installation encourages audiences to engage personally in this collective contemplation, using the natural movement of waves and the salmon farm as a social structure to facilitate an inquiry into the essence of humanity. Through this exploration, it fosters a profound reflection on community, interconnectedness, and the meaning of communication in contemporary society.
