iteration IV (for Allen) is a continuation and derivative of the recent series of iterative projects, parsing and re-imagining elements to find new connection points and resonating waves. Iteration IV imagines a new choreographic exchange between visual and sonic worlds and invokes the writings and recordings of Allen Ginsberg.
From Findlay//Sandsmark: “With the iteration series of projects we wanted to refrain from constructing a pre-text to the work. It just doesn’t somehow feel right in light of the works openness and sensibility. The iterative work is a culmination of many different artistic threads and is an open frame for the audience to experience without being saddled or burdened with terms, narrative or ideas of aboutness- set yourself free.”
Findlay//Sandsmark is a performance company based between Stavanger and Flørli in Lysefjord in Norway, making work in a process driven and collective approach across disciplinary boundaries to create live art that resonates in a circulatory system comprised of equally valued mediums focused through a choreographic prism and movement based foundation.
