Musician Lilja María Ásmundsdóttir and dancer Inês Zinho Pinheiro have been working together on various projects since 2018. For the past two years, they have been exchanging videos, sounds and thoughts connected to performing. Their ideas have developed into the piece Internal Human which exists both as a live performance and also as a video installation. The live performance will be premiered in Harpa on the 26th of July at 20:00 to celebrate the release of their audio-visual album.
The performance starts in Norðurbryggja and then the journey leads to Kaldalón. The piece is inspired by Lilja María’s instrument, a large string sculpture she built in 2020. During the live performance, Lilja María explores movements that emerge naturally from interacting with the
sculpture and other instruments. Inês takes these movements and translates them to different environments that are projected onto the wall of the performance space. The images and the architecture found in the projections were chosen based on shapes found in the design of the
sculpture. Inês interacts with these environments, using the architectural shapes as inspiration for developing the movements.
Tickets are available now.
The performance is approx. one hour, without intermission.
