If They Hit Just Right
Solo exhibition, 2021, Kiosken Studio, Bergen, curated by Artfolk (Daniela Ramos Arias & Christa Mako Teigen)
"If They Hit Just Right explores ranges and tensions in ambiguous experiences of love and solitude. The title refers to a sweet spot, of emotional brutality and queer sensuality. It is a solo exhibition by Runa Halleraker, with non-figurative work spanning from 2017 to the present."
