The MIDI project (Minority-Identity-Diversity-Integration) is designed for minority groups as part of their integrating process into a community outside their homeland. The project includes hosting, coordinating, and collaborating on cultural activities such as concerts, workshops, seminars, and other relevant events both in Norway, and other Nordic countries. It is an initiative not only for entertaining homesick audiences but also as part of an effort to preserve their native culture, demonstrating and introducing its values to future generations and their new community.

Earth-Sea Event
Earth-Sea Event
Building on the success of the Earth-Sea Event, which debuted as the opening exhibitions during Fana Kulturdagene in October 2024, DAO-SK Kunstnerisk Forening is delighted to reorganise the event at Åsane Kulturhus from January 16th - 19th 2025 from 10.30-18.30, in celebration of the upcoming Lunar New Year 2025.
The event features two distinct exhibitions: "Ink and Other Stories" by Minh Thư Phạm and "Blue Wonderment" by Zhengcui Guo. Minh Thư Phạm presents a stunning collection of ink paintings, each accompanied by a fascinating short story. Meanwhile, Zhengcui Guo showcases her captivating "Blue Wonder" painting series alongside an impressive wool felting collection featuring intricate sculptures. Together, these exhibitions highlight the enriching intersection of Eastern and Western cultural influences.
We warmly invite you to experience the unique blend of art and storytelling at the Earth-Sea Event.
Psykotisk Håndbok
Psykotisk Håndbok
A Psychotic Handbook is a concert performance that follows musician Ole MAA from the start of his musical career in 2005 to his involuntary hospitalizations in 2012. The performance combines music, humor, and storytelling to give the audience a unique insight into psychosis, depression, and mania—told both from Ole’s perspective and through the eyes of those who witnessed his experiences.
The concert is followed by a conversation featuring Ole MAA, psychologist specialist Ivar Elvik, and a representative from the Bipolar Association. The discussion, which lasts approximately 30 minutes, will be conducted in English and will include an opportunity for the audience to ask questions.
This project is a collaboration between Urban Rebels Production, Ole MAA, DAO-SK Kunstnerisk Forening, and the Bipolar Association. The occasion for this partnership is to mark World Bipolar Day on March 30th, with the goal of raising awareness about mental health and recognizing the signs of mental illness.

Earth-Sea Event - Fana Kulturdagene
Earth-Sea Event - Fana Kulturdagene
The Earth-Sea Event, part of the MIDI project, builds on the success of the Vietnamese folk music concert ‘ĐỜN CA TÀI TỬ’ (included on UNESCO’s list of intangible cultural heritage since 2013).
The two artists contributing to the event are professional artists residing in Bergen. They have dedicated thousands of hours of work to the Earth-Sea project and bring with them elements of their cultures from Vietnam and China. Through their craftsmanship, they will introduce cultural elements inspired by the Norwegian landscape, while their lives integrate into Norwegian society.
The event also provides opportunities to develop and strengthen bonds between people in the community, as well as to build networks among professional artists. In addition, the event will enhance cultural offerings for children and youth, while promoting language learning and identity. We hope that the MIDI project, with the Earth-Sea Event, will help enrich the cultural life of Bergen, Norway.
