Artist Residency production 2023
Performance/Video Production in the Arctic - A Re-Engagement of RADICAL LIGHT within its origin:
A new collaborative work was created during my artist residency at KYSTEN - Troms Fylkeskultursenter in Tromsø, Norway, 2023 located in the arctic north, over 300 kilometres (190 mi) north of the Arctic Circle at 69°40′58″N 18°56′34″E - The reinterpretation of the original performance with Marita Isobel Solberg, on the nature of infinite light in the northern hemisphere, its essence and resonance on the human system that also served as an inclusion for my experimental documentary film project Radical Light Film. Solberg's performance is also a revisit to our intertwining paths since 2007, and resurrection of Solberg's performance Joiking Light, in my monumental light sculpture installation RADICAL LIGHT, at Kai Art Center, on the perceptual and cognitive processes of space, light, sound and our relationship with the interconnected being, where presence within an artwork and through the performative transmission of art is a dedication of ones energy to the human and universal organism.
RADICAL LIGHT Film is an experimental documentary film on my light and space practice in collaboration with film makers Jean Sonderand and Nick Tyson, and includes artistic collaborations with acclaimed composer JG Thirlwell, Sami elder dr Ande Somby, and performance artist Marita Isobel Solberg.
