This new generation of female dancers and performance artists on the international contemporary art scene use themselves and their bodies to explore their relationship with the world. They have expanded their understanding of the life-supporting relationships to include all species and all life. Their working methods are largely characterised by collective processes, hybrid artistic expressions as well as dialogue and exchange with thinkers and forms of life outside their own circle.

The work has resulted in six video works, where the performance artists through their individual practice express their female sensuality and power in close relation to life in different landscapes, listening to the forces of nature, to the food and to the earth. The meeting with the individual artists’ images, choreography, temperament and landscape is mediated through a six-eyed video camera and is experienced in parallel in six different virtual spaces through VR glasses. With his recordings and editing of the material, Kristján Ingimarsson creates three-dimensional spaces that give the audience room to explore. Based on his physical theater tradition, he gives those who enter the women’s universes a unique and intimate physical spatial experience, where proportions and scale relationships shift in completely unexpected ways.

“Femina Fabula is a hybrid between conceptual performance art, visual art and installation art. The exhibition is the culmination of three years of collaboration with dedicated people, including Andro Manzoni and Áki Frostason. The collaboration with their company Folding House Productions has enabled us to transport you into a world of living tableaus, existential poetry and a spherical soundscape that embodies the essence of the primal female power. The works are presented as an exhibition, where the audience has the opportunity to immerse themselves alone with the images of the works.” – KIC
