Through a call for proposals, Oslo-based artists were invited to examine the existing qualities of Rudshøgda and, through an art project, contribute to preserving and refining these qualities in parallel with other ongoing processes in the area.
Yamile Calderón is one of the selected applicants. Calderón has approached the areas between Mortensrud and Rudshøgda with her camera as a tool. The result is an extensive photographic journey from Mortensrud station to Rudshøgda, where we are presented with local architecture and culture, nature and people, and an impressive diversity of activities and initiatives. The last station, Mortensrud, highlights urban development and challenges us to take a second look at a place that will undergo major changes over the next few years.
The project is a collaboration between the Søndre Nordstrand district and the Oslo Sør initiative, and is being carried out in connection with Oslo Municipality’s major construction project at Mortensrud. A publication showcasing Calderón’s work was published by the photographer under her moniker Washawasha Books. Design by Studio Uno, using a condensed style of Pangram Sans for headlines, and Plain for body copy.
