Growth of the Soil, a group exhibition at Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery, is a love song to nature, to living slowly, peaceably and generously, in harmony with the seasons and elements. Titled after Nobel Prize-winning author Knut Hamsun’s novel, which follows a man’s journey to build a homestead in rural Norway, the exhibition invites artists to explore themes of sustainability, simplicity, and respect for the environment. Drawing inspiration from rural communities that have long lived symbiotically with nature, Growth of the Soil offers a space to imagine how we can heal and restore our relationship with the earth, both now and in the future.
