Hilde Methi is an independent curator living in Kirkenes. She builds ongoing collaborations infusing artistic ideas in local settings. She has been working within the visual art field from the early 1990s, most of the time in Kirkenes and its bordering regions. Since 2023 she is developing an artistic-curatorial collaboration called TRE TRE TRE.
In response to local situations, she curated and produced Dark Ecology (2014-2016, 2018) with Sonic Acts (NL), which involved commissioning and presenting temporary, site-responsive artworks in the Norwegian–Russian border zone; the Sámi Dáiddafestivála/Sámi Art Festival (2008–2010, 2012), which took place in various locations across Sápmi and the Barents region; and Mobile Kultur Byrå(2006–2016), which looked at the cross-border trading climate at the time. In 2020, she co-founded the ongoing Academy of Rhythmorphology with artist Signe Lidén and writer Arjen Mulder.
Her work also includes some writing, editing and publishing. Her most recent publishing is the book The Kelp Congress (2020) and the text "Spirits in the Glass Plate" in If I Could Wish for Something(ed. Dora Garcia) 2021.
