During urban development in the 1970s, the river Lortebekk was placed in pipes, under construction debris and infrastructure.
Until then, the stream played an important role
for settlements, the establishment of industry
and for all life found in the valley.

In the project, this river is used to investigate the connection of the local landscape to processes of change, how the status of the place changes and global connections emerge in such processes. Through geology, archeology and a potentially existing species diversity in the river, its history is told. The material it leaves behind on its journey through the landscape, in the past, present and future, is also our history.
Gonsholt investigate how these processes affect the site’s status and the relationship between material and immaterial qualities. The moving images and its soundscape leave the landscape as the protagonist.
