Norway, SLOW, city living / silent vlog Oslo / Nordic art /Britta Marakatt-Labba

[@hansanaik3835]

I loved the way you explained Britta's work. The work was breathtaking and added to that, your explanation was simply beautiful. I could feel the pain of the Sami people when you said that they were made to feel ashamed of their culture because they were considered backward in need of being civilized by the government. This has happened in all colonized countries and it still happens around the world with countries being referred to as first world, third world etc.

[@introvert-and-dog]

I'm happy you enjoyed the trip to the art museum! Regarding the topic of oppression- As you say, similar things have happened and is still happening (sadly) in many countries. It is heartbreaking, especially when it comes to peoples who have long traditions of respecting and co-existing with nature. It is so sad when this knowledge dies out. I'm happy art is a space where I can expand my horizons about the world, and then share it on my channel.

Thank you so much for taking us to see Britta Marakatt-Labba’s art work. Such moving and beautiful pieces. I got emotional in the circular room, my heart hurts for the indigenous people who were mistreated and taught to be ashamed of their culture. We should be learning about others cultures not destroying it. That’s why I appreciate you and your videos so much, you are documenting your culture and sharing it with us. You are recording the present but one day it will be history and I am so grateful to be along for the ride.

[@ЕвгенияС-б1т]

Хорошо сказано🤝

[@introvert-and-dog]

@ashleigh_whatever You put it so well. We should be learning about other cultures, not destroying them. Unfortunately so many indigenous peoples around the world has experiences like the Sami people. What saddens me the most is that we could all learn so much especially about their relationship with nature. The Sami have a philosophy of only taking what they need from nature. I love this way of thinking. Anyway- I hope the future is better than the past. I find art is a great way to raise awareness.

Another wonderful vlog. As I watch your videos I use my 60 year old body and brain and wonder how many times I’d slip and slide on some of the more hilly streets, no matter the weather. 😊. Lately the older I get the more clumsy I become. Anyway, the artwork you showed was amazing and very thought provoking. I love to quilt and do needlework and appreciate how the direction of the stitches and type of stitches can show flow, direction, movement and even emotion. Thank you for taking us along on your walk and showing us this artwork.

[@oficinacaracolinho]

Amazing embroidery art, thank you so much for taking us to the exhibition 😍 my hobbie is drawing so to see other artists works inspires me a lot! And I completely agree with you about visiting the areas where we can truly feel the experience how locals live, otherwise we only see the touristic points where every one goes that with the passing of the years become areas made for the tourists! The little house green and pink is super cute, green and pink always "work" well together and is pleasing for the eyes because green and red are complementary colours 😉 and pink is like a 'cousin' of red 💚💗 Happy weekend to you, Mr.J and Mochi!

[@introvert-and-dog]

Happy to hear you were inspired by the art! I love seeing something that speaks to me in a museum or gallery. It can give me new, creative thoughts. Sadly I don't know how to draw, I am always so impressed with people with this talent. You are lucky! And now I got the explanation of why pink and green always look so good together. Thank you ❤️

[@oficinacaracolinho]

@@introvert-and-dog everyone can draw, it's a skill like as other else, needs practice and let go of expectations, no one will draw like masters from day to night and most probably will never get that stage 😄 it's about having fun! Yes, some people have a natural talent to draw (I certainly don't have) but humans have a powerful thing that is we can learn and get better if we dare to try and keep doing something we love 🥰

Dear Mochi I always feel hapiness when I see her no matter she's walking, smelling something or cuddling on your lap. Oslo is really beautiful, you must be proud of your city. I was amazed with Britta's work such a singular linen canvas embroidered with a true story. But my highlight in this beautiful episode goes all to that nice couple - maybe chatting about the new decor in the bedroom - accommodated in a Havana cigar's box. I' m sure they will watch your sleep. Love from Portugal, the usual gang

Thank you for this glimpse of Britta's art depicting Sami history. Beautifully narrated with your thoughts ☺ Every culture in the world has similar stories. We need such art and stories to learn the ignorances of the past. Thoroughly enjoyed your walks this week.

[@introvert-and-dog]

Happy enjoyed the walk and the art! You are right, sadly many cultures in the world have similar stories. I do wish humans were better at learning from past mistakes. ❤️

[@jennyfulcher8035]

I love Mr. and Mrs. Mouse tucked in their cigar box bed, which reminded me of Stuart Little's match-box bed. Miss Mochi is named after one of my favorite treats (I love Green Tea Mochi especially!). As you and Mochi went on your Sunday walk, I too enjoyed the colorful buildings, which have a lot of character. It's refreshing that Oslo, Bergen, etc. don't have glass and steel skyscrapers dominating the landscape as well as obscuring the view. They provided a nice contrast to the more modern buildings on your neighborhood walk. I also loved Britta Marakatt-Labba's exquisitely hand-embroidered depictions of the daily Sami life. The oppression of the Sami culture reminded me of how we Americans did the same thing in our country, which was a shameful, tragic part of our history. I would love to view Britta's artwork in person and wonder if she'd be able to exhibit at the Nordic Heritage Museum in Seattle, WA? Thanks for sharing! Jenny, Seattle, WA, USA

Beautiful and moving artwork by Britta 🧡 I love seeing handicrafts represented in the art world. Two of my great great grandmothers were Sami, one of which had a sister who walked across the border to Norway, and somehow ended up at the women’s prison “spinnhus” in Oslo. I thought about that when you walked around the old hospital, buildings she might have walked past, since it was late 19th century. She eventually went back to Sweden where she became known to the locals for her colorful Sami weaving. So a lot of connections to today’s video for me. Thank you for sharing 🙏

[@introvert-and-dog]

Thank you for sharing the story of your relatives, and your Sami roots. I have never heard about "spinnhus", but I looked it up now. So interesting. (I love reading about history.)

Dear Introvert, Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your experience of seeing Britta Marakatt - Labba's works at the National Museum in Oslo. Like a true art lover you looked up close and showed us details that create the whole. To me those details are a Perfection and at the same time, they are simple and powerful, as you have observed. I also wanted to share that there is a past-present-future component in every moment. They arise simultaneously. Great art like this awakens that knowledge inside of us. I feel fortunate to be able to watch your videos. Love and blessings to you, dear Introvert, and your beautiful family!

[@introvert-and-dog]

I really appreciate your comment. It made me so happy that I included the clips from the museum in this weeks vlog. (I was a bit worried it would be a little boring). I can feel your kindness through your words. Sending you light from Oslo ❤️

오늘도 편안한 영상 감사히 잘 봤습니다. 칼 요한 거리나 문크 박물관도 좋지만, 주택가 산책이나 사미족의 전시물을 보는 건 더 좋군요. Hello from Korea 🇰🇷

[@introvert-and-dog]

Happy you enjoyed it! It is fun to show places that are not too well known to outsiders 😄

[@milouu7476]

I really really enjoyed the walk and even the exhibition! I know so little of the Sami, only that their history has a sad and dark chapter, but that their customs and traditions are very beautiful. Your explanations were very welcome. As an aside, I had no idea there was an Ethiopian community large enough to warrant a (decently large!) church in Norway of all places! That's so incredible. (My father is from Ethiopia but I was born in Canada. As a child, for traditional celebrations that fell in the winter, I'd have to wear a huge coat and snowpants over my traditional dress! I imagine it's similar for Ethiopian Norwegians :))

[@introvert-and-dog]

Thanks for sharing your story. The scenario you describe where you wear bulky winter clothes over your traditional clothes- I am sure that happens here too! The day I was filming a group of nicely dressed people were headed to that church. I'm certain they will be wrapped up in all kinds of warm clothes come winter 😄

[@judyhutchison6949]

Thank you for taking us to the National Museum to see Britta Marakatt-Labba’s tapestry about the Sami people. I found to be beautiful and very moving, and thought provoking, “The Circle of Life”. I did enjoy the walk with Moochi, I did like the brightly painted houses, I always do. That hospital was built before the British “discovered” Australia 🇦🇺. If one is lucky enough to meet the locals in their own habitat, when visiting a foreign country, one is very lucky indeed. I hope that the 3 of you have a great week. Warmest regards, Judy 🇦🇺🇳🇴❤️

[@introvert-and-dog]

I'm so happy you enjoyed the video now with subtitles and the extra info! Big hug from Oslo ❤️

[@joijaxx]

Dare I say it AGAIN?? This one is the best video yet! I mean, from start to finish I was so captivated with the sights you laid out for us like gifts. And the star, that little Princess Mochi, was super cute and put me to shame once again with her energetic trotting. Love from Long Island! xoxo

Wow, thank you! You always leave the sweetest comments that make me smile. Love from Oslo to Long Island. Mochi sends kisses! ❤️🐶

Dobro jutro. Čitala sam da su Saami vjerovali i u drveće koje je imalo oblik ljudskih lica i još mnogo drugih zanimljivih priča o njima. Pozdrav za tebe iz toplog Sarajeva! Kao i uvijek, divan video (zamisli kad ti to kaže stara gospođa od 62 godine kojoj su priče tako mlade osobe kao ti beskrajno lijepe i često ih pokazujem svom mužu 🎉🎉🎉😊)

[@introvert-and-dog]

I think many cultures around the world, like the Sami culture has a wonderful relationship with nature where they respect it. It is a shame that these kind of cultures and traditions are dying out more and more. Anyway, I am very happy to hear you are sharing my videos with your husband! Sending love from Oslo to you in Sarajevo ❤️

[@kati-ana]

Hi Hi Sweet Mochi and Mr's I and J. Wishing you three a great weekend and the week ahead. Stay safe, happy and healthy.

[@introvert-and-dog]

Thank you so much! We wish you a nice and peaceful weekend ❤️🐶💫

[@mariolamartindelaguardia1144]

Todos los lugares que muestras tienen un encanto especial y, en este caso, los barrios que no están en el circuito turístico de las ciudades poseen la virtud de lo auténtico: la bicicleta del niño en la puerta, la valla sin pintar del jardín, la calle con sus agujeros...¡Gracias por mostrarlo! Y gracias por acercarnos el arte de Britta. Leí hace mucho tiempo un libro de antropología sobre las mujeres sami y me encantó. Ahora, conocer la obra de Britta me hizo recordar y me emocionó. Pienso que utilizar los bordados para contar la historia del pueblo sami es añadirle ternura y amor a cada episodio, a cada puntada de hilo y aguja 🪡. ¡Desde hoy soy fan de Britta 😍! Feliz fin de semana, queridos amigos. Y un saludo para todos los que forman esta comunidad tan bonita 😘💞✨

[@introvert-and-dog]

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment written with love. I'm happy that you liked the walk in the ordinary residential street and the art of Britta Marakatt-Labba. I was amazed when I saw it, and wanted to share it. Your words make me extra grateful to have this small channel where I can connect with people around the world, and spread some light. ❤️

[@kristy_chester]

Your vlogs always make me feel calm, relaxed, and incredibly inspired🤍 Thank you so much for introducing me to such a beautiful artist like Britta Marakatt-Labba. I had never seen her work before today, but now I can say with certainty that her art has captured my heart. I hope I will have the chance to see her work in person someday. I have never seen such an extraordinary presentation of the history of a people, their experiences, religion, and everyday life. It’s unbelievable!🥰 Mochi saw off Mr. J so sweetly and calmly! 😍That’s really great. For us, leaving the house without Chester is a real quest😅 Chester tries every possible way to sneak out and come with us, even if one of us stays home. Sometimes he even manages to get into the elevator first! In those situations, we just laugh, and I carry Chester back home, giving him an extra treat as compensation🤣 Thank you for your beautiful vlogs. Through your videos, you perfectly convey the atmosphere of the places you visit, enhancing the viewer’s immersion. It’s as if we’re right there with you and Mochi☺ Wishing you a wonderful week🤗 With love, Kristy and Chester🤍🤍

[@introvert-and-dog]

I love to hear about Chester's personality, so thanks for sharing! I can totally see him sneak out to come with you guys! 😂 How funny and sweet. Does he have a favorite, or does he like you equally? We never trained Mochi to be calm when we leave, we were just very lucky with her personality. When we leave, she just looks at us and accepts it immediately. In the beginning we were worried that she might bark when we left, so we installed a webcam. But when we looked at the camera, she is just sleeping all the time we are gone. I would feel sooo bad if she was anxious and barked. Now I can relax. Happy to hear you enjoyed the art. And I hope you get the chance to see it in real life one day. It is very special! Love from Oslo to the three of you❤️

[@kristy_chester]

​@@introvert-and-dog I think Chester spends more time with me and gives me more love than my husband does. This is surprising because, during the first two weeks, Chester lived with Alex while I was working in another city and couldn’t take care of his upbringing. However, when I returned, Chester immediately seemed to love me more. Does Mochi have a favorite? ☺

[@asmatbibi66]

Beautiful places

[@acatarinamr]

I also love to see residential areas wherever I go on holidays, it's the best way to really know the place and its people. Thank you for sharing a bit about Sámi, I found it very interesting! 🥰

[@introvert-and-dog]

Yes, it is so interesting to see the residential areas, right? I love that so much when I'm abroad. Happy you enjoyed the Sami art work ❤️

[@ras2930]

Hi Princess Mochi and her two dads! That was impressive embroidered artwork. I like the story behind it. Thank you for the closed captioning. The story of governments repressing ideas, beliefs and cultures still happen to this day even here in the US albeit in a subtle way. Also, I’m so in love with the colorful buildings of your country. I know Bergen is known for that. I have to still to watch your Bergen episode. Okay gotta go now. Boo is itching to walk to the park this morning before it gets to 100 plus degrees this afternoon in the miserable Texas summer heat!

Every time when I get the notification that you have uploaded a new video I’m getting excited. It’s like a series with perfect content and episodes for me. That’s why I’m brewing fresh Turkish coffee and start watching your content. So this video was also perfect. Firstly I enjoyed the beautiful streets you have shown us and at the end of the video I’ve learned so much from you about the history of Norway. The way how the artist explored all the details is amazing and with your descriptions it became a great documentary. I had so much fun and was sad as I saw the video came to an end. Thank you for the wonderful moments and great content! Love from your Turkish fangirl ❤
