  • The reviewer wonders if the plant room enhances or detracts from the overall artistic experience.

Anawana Haloba's exhibition, a highlight of the Bergen Assembly festival, is drawing attention for its captivating elements. The artist has impressed with her work, creating an atmosphere that draws viewers in. However, a specific feature of the exhibition, a dedicated plant room, has sparked debate among critics.

The reviewer questions the necessity and impact of this plant room, pondering whether it truly complements the rest of the artistic display or if it serves as a distraction. The core of Haloba's exhibition is strong and engaging, making the inclusion of the plant room a point of contention regarding its artistic merit and contribution to the overall theme.

Despite this reservation, the exhibition is recognized for its overall quality and Haloba's impressive contribution as a festival exhibitor. The question remains whether the plant room was a necessary addition or an unnecessary element that detracts from the otherwise compelling artistic vision.
