National Debris takes its starting point in the restoration by the Armed Forces of the Hjerkinn firing range at Dovrefjell, involving the erasure of all traces of military activity. Since 1923 an area of 165 square kilometres between Dombås and Oppdal has been a training ground for the Norwegian army and NATO. Before 2020 the whole area is to be restored to its natural state as wild, virgin nature – perhaps the most extensive nature restoration project in Norwegian history. Bennin has started with the actual finds that have been made on the firing range over the past few years, and shows photographs of both unexploded and detonated munitions in the landscape where they were found.
