For five school days, we worked with a class of language learners from the Adult Education Center. In the exhibition, you will encounter the students’ own stories seen through an object of significance to them, and what happened when their personal stories were connected to Kvitnesg\u00e5rden. Alongside conversation and reflection, we have worked with composition and photography as forms of expression. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A House with many Layers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The buildings in the open-air museum in Folkeparken were originally moved there to tell the story of North Norwegian coastal culture. The largest house is called Kvitnesg\u00e5rden. The building from 1826 was the main house of the trading post Kvitnes on Vann\u00f8ya in North Troms and has stories dating back to the 1680s. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stories wowen together<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The students’ encounter with the house resulted in thoughts and new perspectives on both the present and the past, expressed through images and words. In Our Time in the Past, the many stories of the place are woven together with the students’ personal stories and reflections, and Kvitnesg\u00e5rden has acquired even more layers of stories. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
