Linda Persson is a Swedish artist \/ filmmaker and a returning Artist-in-Residence at Skaftfell.<\/p>\n

Throughout my practice language has played a central role. What interests me in language is its ability to fail meaning. I use dead, peripheral and code languages to excavate meaning. Its like an archaeological dig in a search for a forgotten empire.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For the event Thursday Nov 26, starting at 20.00, Linda has invited Pip Stafford<\/a> who is a Tasmanian media artist and producer based in Hobart. Her work is primarily concerned with networks and communications, rituals and patterns, radio and feminist methodologies.<\/p>\n

We will combine our practices at long-distance through a time collapse. We will act from Iceland and Tasmania simultaneously. She will be using electro-magnetic pulsations and frequencies that will be audible and seen in Seydisfjordur. I will create a scenario working on readings of the future through the past using the mythical gemstone Black Opal which I collected in the Australian Desert\/Mining district of cursed landscapes.<\/p>\n

Our attempt is to create seances awakening other dimensions and its ghosts from the virtual world in combining our current realities and practices as triggers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Linda will also show a first edit of her film Zeus Tears<\/em> as part of an installation in the Bookshop-projectspace.<\/p>\n

The doors will open at 20.00 and the performance seances will commence at 20.15 and last for about 15 min. The exhibition will be open through theevening.<\/p>\n
