In the spring of 2023, we conducted 3 visits for groups of about 8 participants from different artistic disciplines and research fields. The groups went on excursions, met local experts, ate and talked together. In these meetings, we laid the foundation for further exploration of the potential and issues related to the landfill situations in Sokndal, which can also be seen in relation to global environmental challenges surrounding the disposal and handling of man-made waste.
