Abstract

The Gáffestallan methodology is a visual essay written by Åsa Andersson Martti, Elena Mazzi, Janne Sirniö after their collective intervention presented at Hurricanes & Scaffolding Symposium in December 2024 at Umeå University, Sweden.
The Gáffestallan methodology was presented as part of the panel Sustainable Placemaking in Sápmi & the Nordics (umu.se), convened by Lisa Nyberg, UmArts Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Fine Art.
In Gáffestallan, (meaning a philosophical coffee break with reasoning), the heat of the fire as a relationship-maker is exchanged, sustained, and received. It aligns with the Vérdde system of mutual reciprocity, thriving in gestures of generosity and trust.
