Where the question of a dialogue with the industrial landscape and the rythme that is sometimes not in sink with the dancers movement, but that is also part of the dialogue between the video artist Kristín Scheving and the Choreographer Julia Griffin (UK) and then later with sound artist Soundbringer (FR), how do we communicate?   CALLING RACHMANINOV 2001 collaboration with HAb, Neil Mackenzie – Spencer Marsden The director Neil Mackenzie brought the group together and through a research period this piece was made. The video artist Kristín Scheving worked with each of the performers in the industrial landscape in Castlefield in Manchester and then the sound was added on by sound artist Spencer Marsden and ofcourse all of it was all inspired by Rachmaninov A piece for five performers, one sound artist, one video artist and a live choir.   MADWOMAN 2004 Short poem about a young woman being caught in dizzy depression facing flares of addicted desperation.   NEI_NEI_AMMA_A 2015 The endless repitition, the little words you hear again and again and think, ´deja vu´, but this is life, it is an endless circle and then you die!   XTIME 2003 Kristin Scheving + Spencer Marsden Images and sound recorded in Reykjavik 10 minutes before and after New Year Eve, overlayed with the audio captured from internet pornography.

ARTIST STATEMENT Scheving´s work is largely informed by her own personal quest to understand how a sense of identity is constructed through family, place and culture. Scheving has explored issues that indeed touch us all at one time or another, sexuality, ageing, mortality and faith.  What are the fears and comforts that continually emerge in moments of vulnerability?  The personal narrative forms the raw material on which she bases her work on. Scheving works in different medium such as painting, photographs, illustration, video and sound.
