In this episode of the Failure, Understanding, Care (& Kunst) podcast, we speak with artist, critic & often time curator Inger Emilie Solheim. Inger Emilie is a friend we have known for some years now since we moved to Tromsø. We have previously worked with her when she presented the solo exhibition "Den skogløs skogen" in Folkeparken, Tromsø, as part of our "F.U.C(&K)" programming in 2020.   We wanted to talk to Inger Emilie as she is someone who could bring multiple unique perspectives to the podcast series, as well as her reflections from working to the manifesto as part of "F.U.C(&K)". She is Norwegian and Sami, from the very, very high north of Norway (Alta), works as a critic and a curator, and - as an artist- has worked on many unique projects that we have seen her involved in, including her taking on the role of a "healer", and, on another occasion, as a sweet maker.   http://www.ingeremilie.com/   On Failure: What is failure? It is something that most of us automatically recoil from, but is it really so terrible? What does it mean to fail? Is failure bad and is success good? Why does failure make us feel bad? Can art ever fail? Ruth and James from F.U.C.(&K) talk to a variety of artists about their art practice, failure, art and beyond. We try to answer some of these questions and then some, and generally have a nice time chatting to some lovely people.
