In 2004, the artists Marte Aas, Talleiv Taro Manum, Tom Sandberg and Gerd Tinglum and the writer Nina Witoszek, were engaged to follow the progress of the building project of the Operahouse in Bjørvika with camera and with words, towards the completion of the building in 2008. The construction site was the starting point for the artists, who focussed on the themes of time, place and gaze. The artists were at liberty to define their own concepts within this framework of ideas.
