Using choreography as a lens, Norwegian choreographer Ingri Fiksal stages particular views of natural and urban landscapes in different cities, altering or interfering with its context.

Friday 07 - Sunday 09 February, 13:00 | 16:00.

The word “diorama” often refers to a three-dimentional model of a landscape, such as displayed in museums of natural history. Another use of the word is for the French diorama theatre, invented by Louis Daguerre in 1822, where the audience were sat watching big landscape paintings transform through skillfully manipulated light, sound effects and live performers.

These performances reflect on the passing of time, on the slow change in landscape, and scenography as an ecological practice of bodies both human and non-human.

The music is composed by Norwegian musician Jenny Hval and noise artist Lasse Marhaug, and shift from a drone-like echo, to a punctured, industrial noise, to indecipherable whispering voices drifting into to the landscape.
