Quiescence

This expressive audiovisual work, a collaboration between visual artist Anna Fríða Jónsdóttir, musician and artist Abraham Brody, and cellist Ásta María Kjartansdóttir, interprets a quest for the silence that can be found in abundance in their native Iceland. The performance plays on the connection between the deep silence in nature and our perception of balance and rhythm, and the way that the key to our serenity lies in our own inner silence. 

Music is used in an audiovisual performance as a metaphor for the struggle of the inner landscape finding the balance of the perfect rhythm of sound, silence, action, quiescence.
