Exaggerated
This research project consists of various modes of investigation into
the city space of Fredrikstad: bodily, verbally, but mostly through the
discipline of photo documentation.
The main focus for Patryk Wasilewski is to investigate the borders
between private and public space of Fredrikstad´s city centre, viewing
motivations that attract people into those specific sites, and the desire they
feel to identify with that particular space.
The installation space is open to walk in. Miniature figures,
photographs and framed markings occupy the gallery space and aim to evoke the
viewer’s memory and experience of the city. The objective of this exhibition is
to challenge visitors to acknowledge the complexity of their surroundings
through self-reflection. The work aspires subconsciously to be created by the
audience themselves, through the charting of their experience, their actions
and personal reading within their walk.
Mapping the city, Wasilewski presents through his installation in this
gallery space, a log of the process. Further on, he proposes an interpretive
recording for understanding the landscape and territories that form the city of
Fredrikstad.
Exaggerated as a research project is a conceptual suggestion, a
metaphor of the territories that connect and divides people of Fredrikstad;
both on a physical and ideological level.
What does this
landscape mean to us, and how do we deal with it on a daily basis?

2017 har utvilsomt vært et rikt og opplevelsesfylt utstillingsår i galleriet! Retter en VARM HJERTELIG TAKK til Marit Roland, Art Militia v/ Jens Stegger Ledaal, UKM Østfold, Tor Lindrupsen, Johan Söderströmr, "Reisen" med Gunvor Nervold Antonsen & Hans Petter Blad, og Elisabeth Thorsen; som med unike utrykk og dedikasjon har omskapt og fylt galleriet med gripende arbeider! En sann glede å få lov til å jobbe så nært med hver og en av dere!
Galleriet tar en pause i utstillingsprogrammet under 2018. Langt på overtid roper bygården her etter presserende total renovering. Uten å kunne spå eller love, så håper jeg likevel inderlig at det i ikke all uoverskuelig fremtid igjen vil kunne poppes prosecco korker, klirre glass, og ønske velkommen inn til nye spennende utstillinger og møtepunkter i kunstens tegn!
Dette gallerirommet er og vil alltid være mitt hjertebarn, og som kjent oppgir man ikke slikt uten videre!
