Incorporating the Sami victims into this avant-garde, queer art exhibition adds


Incorporating the Sami victims into this avant-garde, queer art exhibition adds a layer of cultural and historical specificity, acknowledging the intersection of ethnicity, gender, and power during the Finnmark witch hunts. Here's how that might be represented: ### Exhibition Title: *"Cursed Lands: The Sami and the Witch Trials of Finnmark"* **Concept:** This exhibition would delve into the tragic stories of the Sami people, who were disproportionately targeted during the Finnmark witch hunts due to their indigenous beliefs, practices, and marginalized status. The queer framing would emphasize the "otherness" imposed upon these communities, drawing parallels between historical persecution and modern struggles for identity and autonomy. ### **Artistic Elements:** **1. Multimedia Installations:** - **Frozen Shadows:** An installation featuring life-sized ice sculptures representing Sami men and women accused of witchcraft. As the ice slowly melts, the figures distort and disappear, symbolizing both the erasure of Sami culture through persecution and the resilience that continues in the face of such erasure. - **The Shaman's Lament:** A soundscape installation blending Ramsey's dark, haunting melodies with traditional Sami joik (a form of song), echoing through a dimly lit space adorned with ancient Sami symbols. The joik would be infused with electronic distortions, representing the clash between indigenous practices and the forces of colonization. **2. Queer Performance Art:** - **Embodying the Noaidi:** A series of performances featuring queer artists embodying the *Noaidi* (Sami shamans), who were often accused of witchcraft. These performances would challenge the binary notions of gender and spirituality, presenting the *Noaidi* as fluid, powerful figures who defy categorization. The artists might use a mix of traditional Sami attire and avant-garde costumes, blending past and present. - **Trial of the Deviant:** A theatrical reenactment of a witch trial,
