Ascending–descending
"Tone Myskja's work reflects how the body absorbs the landscape and how the inner and outer realms dissolve into each other, escaping realism to create other dimensions. The tidal pools, still points, or still acts make it possible to sense memories stored in our bodies, triggered by the encounter with our surrounding environment. It is at these moments that the buried and forgotten surfaces. These moments allow us to hear stories that connect us to social structures so important in building cultural consciousness relating to the past, present, and future." -Camilla Eeg
