Åsne Kummeneje Mellem is a visual artist who uses contemporary art as an arena to explore her Kven identity and belonging. She currently has the exhibition Oppiit/Omateko at Terminal B, which runs until 23 September.
Dj Saunasatan (Kjersti Anfinnsen) is an experimental exploration of Kven identity under the slogan: Ei saa peittää! Do not cover! It is about visible diversity in society and for the individual. Dj Saunasatan curates the sound of Nordkalotten, from Karelian throat singing to Tornedal folk music, from Finnish funk to Kari Bremnes, Mari Boine and Kuuk, a boundless soundscape with several ethnicities and languages, a life-affirming, genre-crossing and diverse mix.
