Kristina Melbø Valvik
Curator
Kristina Melbø Valvik’s curatorial practice entails selecting space for projects with awareness of the audience’s experience in the room. Her curatorial focus lies in the intersections between disciplines. Since 2016 she has worked with the nomadic art space and concept Prøverommet, an independent entity beneath BIT Teatergarasjen in Bergen, Norway. Here she has been involved with several artists in developing site-specific work in unconventional spaces, and with that, boundaries have moved to the public’s expectations for the experience of the art exhibition.
Kristina Melbø Valvika is curator and coordinator of Prøverommet. She holds an MA in Theatre Studies with specialization in scenography from the University of Bergen. Valvik has also been giving guest lecturer in scenography at the University. She also edits publications and works as a freelance producer for Bergen based artists. Combining academic education with practical work Valvik’s interests lies in using strategies from performing arts and theatre to explore how curating itself can become staged, dramatized, choreographed, and composed.
