Sammendrag

The video works A Ship with a View and The Kitchen Garden were made during 2010 at the M/S Innvik, run by Nordic Black Theatre. This turned out to be the last year of the ship’s existence as an intercultural creative environment in the urban development Bjørvika. The works are created as montages with contributions of music, art and performance from people connected to the M/S Innvik. It shows glimpses of activities on board and the changing surroundings.  This work pertains to the Sustainable Development Goal no 11: “Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable, and partly to the SDG no 7: “Clean and affordable energy”. It also suggests culture should be included in sustainability discourse.
