Centarium by Aleksander Johan Andreassen

Alexander Andreassen, a relative of Truls, is a new addition to the Mattima family. He is a filmmaker from the north of Norway currently living in Oslo. His latest project Centarium was screened at both Tromsø international film festival and at the prestigious Høstutstillingen art exhibition in Oslo. It is with this project he took the initiative to collaborate with Mattima, with Øyvind Gregersen as the producer. He is now in development for the next two filmworks of the trilogy Centarium, a film and performance project that deals with consumer culture and explores artistic strategies in the semi-public urban space.

I’m super-motivated to work with Alexander because of his almost infectious commitment as well as his unconventional creativity. He has an open approach to film as a creative platform where different art forms and genres are united. Professionally skilled, as evidenced by several awards and distinctions. A sharp mind that works fearlessly and purposefully without any hesitation in moving outside the established framework.” – Øyvind
