SICC Productions in the UK in collaborations with National Trust invite Icelandic Musician/Sound Artist Halla Steinunn Stefansdottir to undertake a residency in Formby during Winter 2019/2020.
Responding to the theme of transforming landscapes, her investigations will draw on a series of ecological concerns sweeping the coastal area, how people have dealt with these natural changes, and how this connects with areas of Iceland facing similar issues.
Inspired by material uncovered in the archival & heritage collections at Crosby and Formby Libraries, Halla will develop a site-specific soundscape experience taking further inspiration from the National Trust’s focus for the year 2020 highlighting the “importance of places to people, the need of air and the need of quiet, of the night of sky and of things grown”.
This project invites the audience to the core values of enjoying nature in the here and now.
