The Artistic Research
Bodies, audio and video framed in one big sentient universe, when video artist Kristin Wichstrøm and sound artist Cæcilie Overgaard unite their expressions in an audiovisual performance that appeals to the audience's imagination.
Side by side, with their bodies as silhouettes behind canvases, video artist Kristin Wichstrøm and sound artist Cæcilie Overgaard will place themselves, the audience and space, in one big sensory universe.
Their audiovisual performance explores scenic elements, such as body, object and space, without a concrete story, and with appeal to the audience's own associations.
The sound page is based on Cæcilie Overgaard's upcoming debut album 'The sound wave of the heartbeat', which moves genre-wise at the intersection of Nordic electronica and sound art.
The visual side is Kristin Wichstrøm's interpretation of Cæcilie's sound universe.
Inspired by the reflection of light, the movement of sound and space, the visuals are largely improvised live, based on the change of sound and the mood of the room.
The artists
On stage: Kristin Wichstrøm and Cæcilie Overgaard in the company of Tim Ewé (trumpet), Mai Skødt and Nina Bontle (vocals) .The artists behind: Kristin Wichstrøm and Cæcilie Overgaard.
The stage and canvas of the sound wave will be a 90 degree angular wall, which will stand in the center of the room and unite the two artists' expressions, as well as the senses of sight and hearing. In the meeting between Norwegian video artist Kristin Wichstrøm and sound artist Cæcilie Overgaard, a fascination arose with the interaction between their individual expressions, which in this performance becomes a shared universe.
