Artist talk // Inuk Silis Høegh & Jacob Kirkegaard
Artist talk // 15:00 - 16:00
Experience visual artist Inuk Silis Høegh in conversation with sound artist Jacob Kirkegaard
During the filming of The Green Land, Inuk Silis Høegh invited sound artist Jacob Kirkegaard on board. He needed to leave the soundtrack to an artist who could challenge his preconceptions. And no one could do this better than Jacob Kirkegaard, who has recorded sound of everything from the ice cap, Trump's wall in Mexico, dead bodies and landfills.
But how did the collaboration between the artist, who is challenged by hearing loss, and the sound man, who sticks his microphone into the almost inaudible, go? And how do you find the right balance between visual and audio storytelling?
Exhibition // Inuk Silis Høegh - The Green Land
“The Green Land” by Inuk Silis Høegh is a land art project in four stages, representing each of the four elements of the earth: earth, water, fire, air.
All four works are set in Greenland’s nature, and they explore man’s intervention with nature in a time where global environmental issues are knocking on Greenland’s door like never before.
In an ambitious land art project, renowned Greenlandic filmmaker and visual artist Inuk Silis Høegh applies his creative vision to Greenland's diverse nature. The rugged mountains, deep fjords, majestic ice and lush lowlands all take centre stage, as Silis Høegh intervenes, rearranges, applies colour and adds smoke in an effort to question for how long the Arctic nature will remain untouched.
