This article reflects on the digital exhibitionary approaches that wereexplored as part of the exhibition Looking Through Portals held at the CulturalHistory Museum in Oslo in 2018. The exhibition experimented with new ways ofdisplaying, representing and experiencing stave church portals. I discuss two ofthe exhibition’s installations that used digital technologies – a video display and a3D print. These point to how powers of suggestion in museum displays can bringvisitors to experience heritage in new ways.
