Plass til fler – Tid til mer (2005)

Did you know that the title of this sculpture has become a slogan for the entire area? "Plass til fler - Tid til mer", or Room for More – Time for More, created by the artist duo Elmgreen & Dragset in 2005, is more than just a piece of art – it’s a reflection on Tranøy as a place. The sculpture was part of Nordland County’s project Artistic Interruptions, which aimed to create works that challenge and explore contrasts. Elmgreen & Dragset consists of Danish artist Michael Elmgreen and Norwegian artist Ingar Dragset. Since 1995, they’ve collaborated on art projects exhibited in some of the world’s most prestigious venues – including Tate Modern in London, the Venice Biennale, and The New Museum in New York. In Tranøy, this sculpture has taken on a special meaning. It has become not only a visual landmark but also an expression of the spirit of the place. "Room for More – Time for More" is now used as a slogan for Tranøy – an open invitation to come, breathe, and take in the art, nature, and stillness.
