We are happy to announce a talk by the artist duo Wang & Söderström. The duo are currently screening their film Rehousing Technospere at Vita kuben, Norrlandsoperan. The duo have a background in architecture, design and craft and Tim Söderlund will talk about their work and how they navigate in different fields with their interdisiplinary way of working. There will also be time for a collective dialogue and questions.
