IT TAKES A VILLAGE

• IT TAKES A VILLAGE was made by Linn Hilda Lamberg and Eric Sjögren for Accelerator as contribution to the group exhibition The Experimental Field, an exhibition on the relationship between the urban and the rural. In the exhibition hall a temporary community center was installed where a utopian Community Council was summoned. The members of the Community Council did not qualify through conventional aspects, such as land ownership or economical influence, but by the hard earned volume of their life experiences.The council offered their shared life experience to anyone in need of it. In order to meet the council the visitors applied by submitting a personal concern. One by one, visitors were then called to attend the summit, where the council listened to their worries and if they found it suitable offered advice. All concerns were handled confidentially, no recordings were made and all notes were distroyed. Concept: Linn Hilda Lamberg, Eric Sjögren. Film: Tomas Rajnai, Gustav Ågerstrand. Producer: Sofia Jonsson. Assistant director: Anton Österlund Performers: Annchristine Björk, Adam Blomqvist, Angelina Hammarlund, Nadia Hussein, Sofia Jonsson, Abdul Kahlaf, Yvonne Sjögren, Kim Skjoldager-Nielsen, Stephanie Stjärnlöv, and Anton Österlund.  It Takes a Village is a collaboration between O, The non existent Center and Accelerator.
