Namdalseid helsetun, Nord-Trøndelag, Norway, "Women in Health- and Care Work" 2007

        

 


At a show at Namdalseid Helsetun 2007, Brynhild displayed a series of images of women working in different areas of a health care institution. These women are working with different things ;- The Chef in the kitchen, the nurse in caring, the cleaner etc. The exhibition didn’t only portray the women at work but also invited them to contribute them selves. All the employees had the chance to interact by adding their own material. Initially they were presented with tasks like ”take a photo of what care work means to you”.

All contributions were collected and presented at the exhibition. There were quotes from conversations Brynhild had had with the employees alongside the photos. The aim was to make people think about their daily life at work and present it together with the photo material.
