One of our exciting interdisciplinary collaborations for 2018/19 is together with composer
Sebastian Ingvarsson and video-artist
Anna Risell!
Parallelly they've created music and video which are both autonomous pieces and possible to be performed simultaneously; which will be the case at our premiere of their works at the
4/10 at HSM (Gothenburg) and
6/10 at Pygmeteatern (Sthlm).
Sebastian Ingvarsson is a composer whose main focus revolves around chamber-music. His compositions often build upon models from other art forms, such as literature, poetry, and film. Questions concerning musical form is essential in his work, where he strives for a dialectic syntax, a music where everything is in constant transformation.
Sebastian's piece "Punctuated Equilibria", specially written for Ensemble Dasein, will be premiered the 6/10-18 at Pygmeeteatern (Sthlm) in a program of new music by Nordic composers.
Anna Risell is an architect and artist living in Gothenburg. She views her artistry as a search for space-creating processes where the performative element is central. She uses her own body as instrument and tool, where the pen and pencil become natural extensions to communicate her experiences. Through image and text, she reflects upon social dynamics in different spaces and finds inspiration through psychology, sociology, and hippology.
Annas video-artwork "Reverie" will be premiered together with Sebastian Ingvarssons "Punctuated Equilibria" during the premiere at 6/10-18 at Pygméteatern (Sthlm).
